A recent news-article that I posted reminded me that a have written many papers on Nuclear Reactors (of all sorts). Then I immediately read an article about this subject that I found very interesting. Hopefully, so will my readers as it the subject of this paper.
A little over a year ago, President Trump set an ambitious goal: He wanted to see American companies build at least three new experimental nuclear reactors by July 4, 2026, the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
Shortly after Trump signed an executive order enshrining his goal, the Department of Energy launched its Reactor Pilot Program. The program is designed to help companies build and run test reactors quickly, in part by radically cutting back on the regulations required for such reactors.
