Something on the horizon which might be a game changer... Just a thought..

But what if nuclear power could produce more power with less material, while being incredibly less risky?


There’s a growing sentiment that it may be possible with a little-known radioactive metal called thorium. An article in the latest issue of Los Alamos Laboratories’ National Security Science opened with this introduction:


“Imagine an element that when used in a nuclear reactor is so safe that it may never lead to the possibility of the type of catastrophic meltdown that threatened the reactors in Japan. Picture one ton of such an element producing as much energy as 200 tons of uranium or 3,500,000 tons of competitiveness.”
