@MagisFuturum @beffjezos We are going to 3-D print our way up the Kardashev scale

[CalThermo @calthermo]

@CJHandmer @googleearth Dude nice work

[CalThermo @calthermo]

@GovNuclear We are building aqueous salt reactors

[CalThermo @calthermo]

@isaiah_p_taylor @valaratomics You may have reached fission first, but we were in a reactor first ;)

[CalThermo @calthermo]

@MagisFuturum @NaturaResources @FlibeEnergy @valaratomics @AaloAtomics @RadiantNuclear @oklo @NuScale_Power @TerraPower We are going to do it

[CalThermo @calthermo]

@hthieblot We are running reactor experiments with way less than < 500k raised

[CalThermo @calthermo]

It’s pronounced “water”

[Garrett Kinsman @GeKinsman]

Wataa

[CalThermo @calthermo]

American nuclear leadership 🇺🇸 they’re going in…

[CalThermo @calthermo]

Pulling quartz ampoules for nuclear reactor experiments

[CalThermo @calthermo]

Real science. Right here in America.

[CalThermo @calthermo]

It’s time 🇺🇸

[CalThermo @calthermo]

You’re going to build a nuclear reactor out of what?!

[CalThermo @calthermo]

CalThermo has officially been accepted as a participant of the DoE Nuclear Fuel Cycle DPA Consortium!

[CalThermo @calthermo]

We are honored to announce Dr. @robert_zubrin as an advisor to CalThermo! Robert Zubrin is an author and visionary aerospace and nuclear engineer. He sees liquid reactors as a key technology for settling Mars.

[CalThermo @calthermo]

To further our advanced materials expertise, we are excited to welcome Jacob Schekman to the CalThermo team! He recently received his PhD in Polymer Chemistry and aims to help us push nuclear materials into the 21st century

[CalThermo @calthermo]

We are honored and excited to announce @3dxtech as our 3D printing materials partner. Together we aim to push the limits of what can be 3D printed.

[CalThermo @calthermo]

@andrewmccalip There was a startup working on this using microwaves to make really tough alloys … the name escapes

[Garrett Kinsman @GeKinsman]

It was an honor to meet the man himself @robert_zubrin. We’re going to Mars!

[Garrett Kinsman @GeKinsman]

New 3D printing slicing methods like "Brick Layers" are adding up to 30% tensile strength and significantly increasing waterproofness. The age of 3D printing is upon us and it will be massively disruptive (repo below)

[CalThermo @calthermo]

@LegalPrimes According to TRIGA operators, yes

[CalThermo @calthermo]

The center of a TRIGA reactor (or many research reactors in general) is actually called the “glory hole”

[CalThermo @calthermo]

@PedroCoSilva Kya?
