Charges brought over sale of nuclear technology to Russia
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts announced criminal charges this week against two men for allegedly smuggling and conspiring to violate export controls relating to the sale of laser equipment to the Russian nuclear industry.
Natura Resources is committed to answering the world’s increased demand for reliable energy, medical isotopes, and clean water by developing commercially deployable molten salt reactors (MSRs). Natura is rapidly developing MSR technology, first and foremost through the deployment of a molten salt research reactor (MSRR) at Abilene Christian University (ACU).
