Radiant

In small-scale reactor news: Chris Young reports on Radiant. This based on a press-release and an interview from 22 September... 2020.

So basically I missed it and, frankly - so did Young. These 2020 releases came out to counter NuScale which had touted their reactor a few weeks prior. Although I didn't miss much on account Radiant was still in prototype. Young says Battelle Energy Alliance is testing this in its Idaho National Laboratory.

Radiant propose to ship their reactor by any means you like; it's lightweight enough even for air. It is not producing power in-flight, so... this is not powering your Cessna. Something like it may power shipping however.

Naturally I applaud the return of nuclear power. Long overdue.
