You don't want to have too many in a startup.
Yeah.
Yeah.
One miracle that leads to then a product and revenue, that's the way.
And then you have time to think about another miracle.
Totally.
I think a couple of things.
So we could have...
access to nuclear fuel and enrichment that are like in completely competitive free markets where there are innovative startups fixing and solving those challenges.
We should have a waste storage facility that's some centralized repository, which is way safer for the existing nuclear fleet.
that's operated since the 60s, that's an unsolved problem.
And that would, those things alone would cause everything else to flourish because we already have this like middle layer of me and a bunch of other startups trying to get fuel and operate reactors.
And then if we're able to, as a country, really have a better system to deal with nuclear waste.
which actually radium doesn't need.
Like our uniquely at this really small size, we can just put it in the dry cask on about 10 acres of our 80 acre site.
And that works for like 60 years worth of reactors.
And we can always expand and do more.
And, you know, the nuclear waste has got high reactivity elements that last like 100 years.
And for that, it's pretty benign.
But we already have a waste isolation pilot plant in New Mexico, which is like this deep borehole down inside of a salt structure.
