If you're talking about the advanced reactors, a lot of them want to go to 10% or just under 20% because you're going to get that much more energy density.

Your reactor core can get smaller or you might not have to refuel it as much because you can just let it run all the way further down as it burns up.

And so that makes economics better so if a lot of people want to go to 20% because Smaller reactor core means you can build that reactor in a factory and maybe you can just ship it to the site So now you avoid a huge construction project and as you build things in factories The cost just naturally comes down as you as you build more and more and scale up Wow Wow so

Yeah, good question.

Is that not something people really wake up one morning and say, I want to do enrichment of uranium.

It's pretty esoteric industry.

Um, for me, the background was, you know, I'd worked at SpaceX early on and seen what it looks like when people just stopped doing something and completely lose the capability.

And, you know, and SpaceX is an example.

I was aerospace.

I always wanted to do aerospace, rockets, airplanes.

And during college, I worked at Boeing.

And I worked on a big government project, but knew it wasn't moving that fast.

We weren't making that much progress.

I knew that there was a future that we never had in space and found out about SpaceX, went to work there.

We were 30-something people.

And the whole point of SpaceX was, let's make humanity a multi-planetary species.

A lot of people at the time were really focused on satellites.

and saying, OK, there's this revolution in satellites.

They don't need to be school bus size satellites that are a billion dollars.

We can make smaller ones using modern technology, computer chips, all the things that are just off the shelf available through the electronics industry.
