HPC

Any news worthy story. Good things to watch at the Cinema, Theatre, on TV or have you read a good book lately?

How long is it going to run for, before it has to shutdown for the faulty/cracked reactor lid to be replaced?

It will be replaced after the reactor's first operating cycle, so 15 to 18 months after it's actually generating and consuming fuel in meaningful quantities I guess.

No new info about how the path to actual power generation is going, but I guess no news is good news.
