US Energy Secretary Chris Wright has just signed the approval to turn on our first nuclear reactor at the Aalo-X site.
And he did the signing live in person!
We can now begin to load fuel. It will take a few days—this is a big reactor— but we are on pace to achieve criticality before July 4th.
Thanks again to DOE and INL for their incredible support over the past few months.
More announcements soon!
Xbox skyrockets price increases.
2tb discontinued (would look too expensive)
$100 more foe 512 and $150 more for 1TB.
You’re looking at 800-900 bucks now to get the best console from Xbox or Sony.
This is all due to component shortages and RAM maker monopoly bleeding everyone dry as they give their employee ferarri sized bonuses and ghost Valve calls for daring to try to negotiate.
If RAM had been a free market, which it is not, this bullshit would be much harder to pull off.
You need to watch Gamer Nexus to see what a mob outfit the ram makers are.
ANOTHER ADVANCED REACTOR COMPANY IS TAKING THE SPAC ROUTE TO WALL STREET
NUCUBE'S PUBLIC MARKET DEBUT
· NuCube Energy, a factory-built microreactor company headquartered in Idaho Falls, Idaho, agreed to merge with SPAC Launch Two Acquisition Corp in a deal that values NuCube at approximately $500 million in pre-money equity, taking the company public.
· The deal is expected to generate up to approximately $125 million in gross proceeds from PIPE financing and trust account cash, leaving the combined company debt-free with up to approximately $104 million of net cash, while existing NuCube holders roll 100 percent of their equity and retain roughly 73 percent ownership.
· NuCube's reactor design has no pumps, pressurizers, or pressure vessels, using a heat-pipe-cooled, solid-state core with TRISO fuel that reaches output temperatures up to about 1,100 degrees Celsius for microgrids, industrial process heat, and behind-the-meter data center power.
· NuCube and Idaho State University were selected in April 2026 for the DOE's Nuclear Energy Launch Pad USA program as one of 11 modular reactor companies, and the company is targeting a first-of-a-kind deployment in 2029 ahead of eventual NRC commercial licensing.
OE READ
This follows the same SPAC path Oklo used to reach public markets ahead of full NRC licensing, suggesting investors are increasingly willing to fund advanced reactor companies on a pre-revenue, pre-license basis. The 100 percent equity rollover and 73 percent insider ownership read as a vote of confidence from existing NuCube holders, but the entire thesis still hinges on DOE authorization converting cleanly into an NRC commercial license on the 2029 timeline.
Is this valuation pricing in regulatory conversion risk, or just the AI power demand narrative?
