Great except it’s GE and they will want to use the billion dollars of tax-payer money to build the plant in Red China.

Iran has already succeeded with laser enrichment in the lab...

Doesn't seem to make sense to oppose GE's effort when Iran already knows how to do it.

If GE knows how to do it..then the Chicoms know how to do it and the Paki’s aren’t far behind. They have so many people working in these fields that the technology cannot be kept bottled up in a test tube.
We sacrificed a log of technology and time to the Chicoms when we should have continued to work on the neutron bomb and EMP bombs. I’m sure they have continued to work on them.
One of my business associates in Asia was a US citizen of Chinese origin who studied Nuclear Physics at Bezerkly.
He seemed to be pretty straight, but what he believed was that most of the Chinese students in nuclear physics were on the payroll of the Chicoms.

"critics fear that if the work succeeds and the secret gets out, rogue states and terrorists could make bomb fuel in much smaller plants that are difficult to detect."

Seriously? Since when?

Laser enrichment is like fusion, a fifty-year-old will-o-wisp always just out of reach.

Is this state of affairs REALLY about to change or are we just looking at more “cold fusion”?

Reporters need to quit tagging every scary concept with “terrorism”.
Terrorists do not build multi billion dollar uber high tech laboratories to generate super dangerous fuels for advanced weaponry.
Terrorists are not going to nick a nuke, build a satellite launch facility, and send the device into orbit just to attemt an EMP attack.
Terrorists buy a bunch of box cutters, plane tickets, and start slitting throats at altitude.
Terrorists build shitty improvised explosives and hope they go off roadside.
Terrorists buy a gun and start shooting people.
Terrorists are not smart enough to do nasty things with super sophisticated technology; if there’re that smart, they’ll figure out that they can do better without dying in the process - like make millions in stocks.

ge will get at least a billion from this administration for it. Laser guided selective nucleon placement would be much more profitable making gold however. Skittle farts dripping down the rainbow coalition’s rump.
