Why are these not used on earth?

Do you really, really, want chunks of plutonium

We do have nuclear power stations which can and do explode....

Wrong.

Well if you count a hydrogen explosion that happened because the staff
were not allowed too vent the hydrogen to the atmopshere because it
might be slightly radioactive...

I'm guessing the explosion was a damn big venting. DOH! Health and softy
shooting itself in the foot yet again!

Sure, but it wasn't certain that it would explode if not vented.
