And in coal, there's a number.

In gas, there's a number.

In solar, there's a number.

And actually, nuclear has the lowest number.

nuclear has the fewest deaths per generated power of any form of energy generation.

So it is simply the safest.

What would happen if China were to hit your reactors?

So our reactors in particular, we get a lot of benefit out of two things.

One is the fact that our reactors are very low power density.

So what does that mean?

It just means per unit volume of our reactors, there's not as much fissile material inside of them.

So we have a lot of benefit out of the box in just that our, you know, as a target, it's a low density target, right?

You don't get a lot of bang for your buck.

The other thing is that triso itself is an extremely, extremely powerful ceramic, right?

So you are, it's interesting, the strength of a sphere scales inversely with its size.

So what that means is the smaller the sphere, the stronger it is proportionally.

And so you take that to the limit, and this is a technology that American scientists invented.

The reason they did this is that you can wrap these very, very small beads of uranium about the tip of a ballpoint pen in these extremely strong ceramics.

And proportionally, that ceramic coating around the uranium pellet is actually stronger than a containment dome.

So if you look at a traditional nuclear reactor today, you have these big concrete containment domes, and those domes are built to answer the question you asked, like, what if you dropped a bomb?
