The future of Nuclear = Small, Mobile, Microreactors | Radiant

The future of Nuclear looks nothing like the past: big, expensive, and stationary — instead it could be: small, mass-produced, and mobile. Radiant for Episode 48 of S³

Note: at 6:37 a big dummy (me, Jason) accidentally included a graphic from last week's episode 🤦🏼‍♂️ sorry!

Aerospace companies MUST be manufacturing companies, not just design and engineering companies. Radiant realizing this gives me a lot of hope.

I work in the mining industry, and the need for power generation technology like this is immense.

Like 15 years ago, when I learned that all of our submarines and navy ships were powered by nuclear reactors, I immediately thought, “why is nobody doing this in the private sector”. It’s only now that I’ve discovered the reason: existing power structures and narratives. That will be the greatest barrier to Radiant’s success.

This channel is still CRIMINALLY underrated and undersubscribed.

[jacobrintamaki]

There really is nobody doing it like S3.

Documenting the revival of American manufacturing. Top quality channel and video!

It's nice to see someone modernizing fission. It seems like fusion is taking up all the attention, but that's still a fantasy for now.

I wish Radiant success. With this tech we will prosper

[poetac]

Wow. Those machined graphite parts are crazy.

In my 70's, I hope to live long enough to see you folks selling these as fast as you can make them.

[TroyRubert]

The anti-nuclear folks will have to answer for setting us back so far on the path to net zero.

This episode may be your best work yet, Jason. Well done.

Watching these videos, as a mechanical engineer, and listening to Doug and team speak of the work they are doing it's really humbling how utterly insignificant and meaningless the work I do is. I'm glad I'm also frequently reminded of the intelligence and the exceptionalism still present in the USA today, despite what I see in the mainstream constantly.

[MarkSunner]

Consistency blown away by the sophisticated/stunning storytelling at S3 - exceptional. 🎯

[bencohen]

Dude this channel rocks! I’m a manufacturing engineer and I love to see technology made like this in the US!!

Brilliant Radiant! I did not quite support or was keen in nuclear reactors since my school days in the 1970's but after viewing your video on the subject & the over- all view of your enthusiastic, radiant, technical explaininations it makes some sense as long as there is guarantee that no radio-active materials are released to the atmosphere in case of cooling failure or some other faults in the system or introduced faults to the nuclear reactors. If that safety aspect is 110% guaranteed then I am all for this potable, robust nuclear system. I really would like to witness your nuclear reactor system working in real life conditions & would be looking forward to your launching in 18 months time in 2028. You are also most welcome to trial this new nuclear reactor at my village in Nubia, Hanza Bay in Madang Province. Greetings from Madang, Papua New Guinea!

Great video. Hope to see S3 take a deep dive into Copenhagen Atomics some time in a future video. They are doing stuff that is even way beyond what these guys are building.

Amazing - what an exciting time. Thanks for all the work to share this with us!

This is fascinating. New construction nuclear power is where I spent a large part of my career. I actually had a dream about Microreactors 30 years ago, I described it as a washing machine size reactor. Keep up the good work, you're on the right track.
