    Thank you for setting your time aside for us to catch a glimpse! With love from Singapore

    Came across these videos in my youtube feed, they are wonderful, very well put together, I only recently found out that In ireland our own Cork institute of Technology has it's very own research reactor which would be amazing to see . myself and my mates are in the process of setting up a makerspace and even if i we only make a thousandth of the impact on encouraging people to science and The STEM fields you make everyday. we would be proud! many thanks for uploading the videos!

    Very nice videos of the reactor and the experiments going on! Wish my university had its own reactor :-)

    Of March 2019 by invite only I gave a presentation on nuclear fusion propulsion for a peer reviewed engineering conference held inside MIT's Electrical Engineering Dept. on Vassar Street.

      My own family thinks I am "Dr. Strangelove" when I try to explain to them how nuclear engineering is essential to have an extraplanetary civilization or even go beyond our universe.

      Today they restrict isotopic fuels and nuclear materials just as earlier societies restricted nitrates.
      I can prove how Noguchi of early 1940s Hamgyong Province achieved muon catalyzed fusion vilified by Robert K. Wilcox just as how they once vilified fermentation of urine feces for fractional crystallization of boiling cauldrons to extract nitrates as "witchcraft" or "sorcery".
      Matter in fact "Little Everyman " by Deborah Needleman Armintor described how a dwarf went under a lady's skirt in a carriage to use a gravy boat bourdaloue to collect excrement and "Liquid Air" by T. O'Conor Sloane described how Victorians went to war over guano.
      I remember hysterical panic of by from officials when I proposed to extract cosmic ray muons of Canada's Magnetic North.

    How does the future of LFTRs look? From what I've read of them, they seem almost too good to be true. Is it also a $ problem there, or is there some practicality issue that's preventing them from seeing mainstream implementation?

    So you stated that the reason "we don't have more reactors is because they are expensive, so how would you have "them on every street corner"? Also how will that type of device be under any protection from explosion or subversion?

      I think that's what the research is all about. The first generation computers were expensive and large but now we all have computers in our pockets. Success in these research areas might lead us to cheaper nuclear energy.

    If I were to die of radiation poisoning in the lab at least I would have first met Sarah.

    While I think they should know how to prioritize the budget as the price of gas up, they can spare those money to makes up the nuclear reactor project happen again. Those expensive thing will be sponserd by larger corporation under the government budget as the government had already allocated those profit to run the project. I hope so.

    China has a 4th generation pebble bed helium cooled reactor in Rongcheng,China .In 2019,.China is going to the far side of the moon to mine Helium-3 for a 5th generation nuclear fusion reactor

    It’s too bad you disable all comments on your Nuclear Reactor videos. I’m sure you could moderate the responses somewhat. You become more than elitist when you shut out the world. You become a paradigm for arrogance and complacency. The same mind set that led to fascist ideals. And the idea that someone or something can make some of us better than the rest. Trolls aside, you are disconnected from the world you seek to change. The higher-ups just do it right in front of you with your help. Elitism and accomplishment became the Route to the Mask of the Red Death. Pass the buck until it comes right back to you.

      I don't think MIT turning off comments on their primary education channel to avoid trolling comments being seen by young students can be compared to fascism
