The question says it all. What is the average salary for someone who operates a nuclear reactor?

I can't answer the first part, but having worked on a nuclear reactor in the military, I can give you an idea about the second part. Given the virtual moratorium on new reactors, there are only so many spots available at any one time. However, as more and more nuclear trained people are getting out of the Navy (all submarines and aircraft carriers are atomic powered), those not many spots can be chuck-full by an ever increasing number of people, consequence the longer you wait, the more competitive it is sliding grate on nerves get.

Generally above 80,000. It depends on your time at the work location, skill level, and a few other factors. But it definitely would be a high paying job considered to other fields.
