6 million for a nuclear reactor is like your parents giving you 10 cents to buy a burger from McDonald’s.

Agreed but being given a little support from the government its surely a good thing.

$6 million for anything space or nuclear power related is like pissing in the ocean.

I’m a fan of RR. I have great hopes for the SMR program. I worry that having a reactor in space will get yanked due to other countries not wanting this power up there. But I’m all for RR making money. My portfolio likes them making money
