TEPCO launches English-language fuel debris portal website
Tokyo Electric Power Company has added an English-language version of its Fuel Debris Portal Site to its website. According to the company, the portal is intended to deliver information pertaining to melted nuclear fuel debris at the Fukushima Daiichi site to the public in an easy-to-understand manner.
Space Nuclear Power Corporation, SpaceNukes, was founded to help enable the deployment of fission systems in space. Our founders designed, developed, and tested KRUSTY – the first new US reactor concept in 50 years. That experience uniquely positions us to distinguish between “real” reactors and overtouted “academic” reactors, as explained by Admiral Rickover years ago.
