Why can't this work:

NASA uses plutonium-238 to generate electricity for satellites in its deep space missions. Using this general approach, can a car battery be continuously charged and that battery used to power a car? Sure, new tech would have to be developed, but is this idea impossible?

@CADmonkey

I was looking towards tech geniuses to solve the power problem. Solar is a nice idea but with so many cars not hardly ever in the sun, I doubt it would be the option of choice.
