I’m confused why this is being written as though it’s a big deal. There are currently hundreds of power plants operating globally that use nuclear fission, and that’s not including military vessels. Pretty sure university students also do this semi regularly.
> Valar is also part of a lawsuit challenging the NRC’s strict oversight of small reactors. The company argues the risk of large-scale disasters is low, making NRC review unnecessary
Disasters don’t have to be large scale to kill a ton of people and poison the land for generations.
this is from Nov 2025
Doesnt canada had same recent news?
Slow clap I guess? The world has been making nuclear reactors for 80 years now. This is news because this looks like a Palantir-backed project and the Palantir has a lot of sway.
