Everything is more expensive than hydro and coal. Nuclear is probably the next cheapest thing.
There are hundreds of nuclear plants in operation now that are susceptible to terrorist acts. I suspect modern designs could be built to withstand a hijacked plane running into it if the reactor was placed underground. Modern designs won't rely on a cooling tower to prevent meltdown and loss of containment.
