I'd feel safer than being in a high crime neighbourhood of Detroit at night. Drop any idea that such devices would "accidentally go off". Not a chance. The explosion needed to produce equal pressure of the fission producing chamber is quite sophisticated, and the detonator inserts, and sometimes even the cores are always stored separately from the main body, only inserted directly before the intended use. So I wouldn't be exactly biting my nails transporting it. I would however have somewhat different worries, concerning ethics of its intended use.

@@ervandrush3116 Maybe now, in the running, but because the US and the Russians let their super heavy boosters fall to the wayside (Saturn V, as well as Energia). The Shuttle was supposed to carry quite a payload - 29+ tonnes under best circumstances for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) - but they NASA dialed that back, and then retired the craft. Proton M comes in at ~24 tonnes for LEO , not much more than Falcon 9, which under best circumstances seems to come in at 22.8 tonnes for LEO. Falcon Heavy supposedly gets up to 63.8 tonnes for LEO. Otherwise, the Delta IV heavy can do 28+ tonnes for LEO supposedly.

It's no wonder they always to a blessing at the launch pad (kind of wet, but interesting).
