Deep Fission to break ground this week
With about seven months left in the race to bring DOE-authorized test reactors on line by July 4, 2026, via the Reactor Pilot Program, Deep Fission has announced that it will break ground on its associated project on December 9 in Parsons, Kansas. It’s one of many companies in the program that has made significant headway in recent months.

ETDOSE is a simple computer code for calculating distribution patterns of tritium in the environment for acute and chronic releases of HT and HTO. It calculates tritium concentrations in air, soil, plant free water and plant organic material, and estimates dose impacts from inhalation of air and ingestion of food. ETDOSE includes two different models for calculating HTO re-emission from the soil surface for a chronic tritium release. These two models were tested in the IAEA's model validation program BIOMASS (BIOsphere Modeling and ASSessment methods)1.
