Just a reminder. The executive summary is a great place to start. The report is here energy.gov/sites/prod/files/… #consentbased

Voyager 1 launched in 1977 and is still sending back data from nearly one light-day away. Nuclear power makes this possible.
Incredible work by @NASAJPL to keep its instruments operating with radioisotope power systems.

Nuclear energy is the most exciting thing you can work on today.
It's upstream of compute, human and planetary health, wealth and abundance.
It unlocks everything.

"To the extent that anyone has yet to be convinced of the exciting things going on in the United States, I invite you to come to Idaho National Laboratory and see exactly how exciting it is." — @ENERGY's Dep. Sec. Danly at @OECD_NEA's #RoadmapsToNewNuclear conference.
We've proved advanced reactors work. Now we must build them — affordably, repeatedly, and at the pace America needs.

Hello from Paris! @ENERGY's Mike Goff is at @OECD_NEA Roadmaps to New Nuclear this week to talk real solutions for deploying more nuclear energy around the world.

"The interesting thing is the ideal nuclear product that customers are demanding today is very different from the ideal nuclear product from 50 years ago. There are 400 reactors around the world today and they're all basically bespoke. They're one-off giga-scale projects. The 100 or so reactors in this country were one-offs for large utilities. Different people built them. They had different designs.
That's really the challenge - that is why it takes ten years plus to build one of these large plants, and why they cost so much money.
Some people view Three Mile Island as the nail in the coffin, but it wasn't really the main turning point. There was a time in the 70s when nuclear was as cheap or cheaper than coal. Normalized to today's dollars, it was around five cents a kilowatt-hour.
Then regulations started to increase. There were a lot of people trying to throw the baby out with the bathwater, people who wanted to get rid of the weapon and didn't understand that the energy source is very different.
And it's really unfortunate, because nuclear is probably one of the best energy sources we have available. Clean baseload. Works anywhere, anytime. Tiny footprint. And contrary to popular public perception, as safe as solar and wind."

#NuclearEnergy is an energy imperative and a #NationalSecurity imperative.
@WhiteHouse's new science and technology strategy recognizes advanced nuclear as essential to America’s technological advantage. Proud of @INL’s role in turning those priorities into real capabilities.

🚨 WOW! By stroke of pen, President Trump just signed a Bald Eagle rendition that will be seen from the sky of the new WHITE HOUSE HELIPAD — and he even invited the construction workers to join him
"I'd like to sign it — and I'd like to have some of the construction guys sign it." ❤️
Best president ever.

We're bringing nuclear power to the Moon in 2028.
Today, @Zeno_Power announced an agreement with @FireflySpace to fly our Americium-241 Radioisotope Heater Unit (RHU) and Survive-the-Night Package on an upcoming Blue Ghost mission, in support of @NASAMoonBase.
The race back to the Moon is a race to stay, and staying means surviving the two-week lunar night when temperatures fall below -280°F. Today, America is behind.
Since 2019, China's Chang'e 4 mission has survived repeated lunar nights using radioisotope technology to stay alive. Recent U.S. lunar missions, relying on solar power and batteries, have not survived.
That's about to change.
After Blue Ghost completes its lunar-day operations, our RHU will provide continuous heat to keep the Survive-the-Night Package running through the dark as it transmits operational data back to Earth.
NASA's demand signal for this was explicit: it specifically incentivized this mission to demonstrate surviving the lunar night with radioisotope technology by 2028. With Firefly, we're answering that call.
Permanence is a power problem. @NASAMoonBase – and the dozens of missions in the coming years that will build toward a permanent lunar presence – will require nuclear at a scale that doesn't exist today. At Zeno, we're ready to meet that demand.
Ad Lunam Per Nuclear!

We are proud to welcome J.R. Biggs to Aalo Atomics as Senior Vice President of Nuclear Operations.
J.R. brings more than 45 years of experience taking complex nuclear facilities from concept to operation.
He previously served as Deputy Director for Advanced Reactor Demonstrations at Battelle Energy Alliance. He also chaired the Joint Test Group for advanced reactor startup at Idaho National Laboratory. In those roles, he supported DOE startup authorization and oversaw construction, fueling, startup testing, and initial criticality.
His career includes many of the nation's most significant advanced reactor programs including the restart of the TREAT reactor, Project Pele, Antares Mk-0, and the establishment of DOME as a Hazard Category 2 nuclear facility.
At Aalo, he will work on the operational organization and governance needed to take advanced reactors from development to commercial deployment.
Deploying reactors at scale requires more than great technology. It requires disciplined execution and operational excellence. Few people have shown this more often than J.R. and we're honored to have him.

Record-high support for new nuclear reactors in the US. Now is the age of builders 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Sometimes it’s cool to remember that the sun is a giant fusion reactor floating in space 100 million miles away and earth is orbiting around it just fast enough to not fall in and burn up, and this gave life a chance to get started and become smart and go about our lives and take all this for granted

Terafab will need 2-3 GW of power by 2033.
It just so happens Aalo is building a 1M sqft nuclear reactor factory within 100 miles, which is aiming to reach 1 GW / yr of hardware output by the end of 2030.

One more story from the Trump visit, this was actually the *second* time I’ve met Trump -- The first I was 13, visiting NYC and convinced my parents to take us to Trump Tower so I could buy a Trump pen because I was a big fan of The Apprentice. Next thing I knew there was a commotion in the lobby, I turned around and he was standing right there. Was hoping to get a pen this time around too but no dice. The gold coin is pretty cool though!

Honored to join @POTUS at the @WhiteHouse today to celebrate a historic milestone: four reactor criticalities — from @AntaresNuclear, @valaratomics, @DeployableE, and @AaloAtomics — meeting the July 4, 2026 goal set out in the President's executive orders on #NuclearReactor testing reform, under the leadership of @ENERGY @SecretaryWright.
Four different companies. Four different technologies. One national result: advanced #nuclear is no longer just a design on paper — it's happened. Three of these four criticalities happened on our site, and none of it happens without @INL staff across nearly every part of the lab, who went above and beyond to get it done.
As I shared in the Oval Office today, in all my years, I have never seen government, private industry and the laboratories working together this effectively.
"Now America is building again, America is dreaming again, and we're leading the world in pioneering the next generation of nuclear power." - President Trump
"America is going to be back as the leader in the nuclear space in large reactors and in next-generation small reactors. [President Trump] set a bold goal. It's been exceeded." - Department of Energy Secretary Wright
This is the beginning of the Golden Era of Nuclear Energy. Onward to 400 gigawatts by 2050.
Thanks for all the hard work @OverReactor1776 !!
Today was incredible. As if getting to celebrate our national success wasn’t enough, my good friend @isaiah_p_taylor told the President about my specific contributions to the nuclear project. In a moment I will remember for the rest of my life, the President reached into his desk and handed me the coin below. Thank you @POTUS and @SecretaryWright for your leadership and trust to accomplish this mission. Working for you was the honor of my lifetime.
