I drove last the FFTF for years and just shook my head everyday. Another of the peanut farmer’s failed policy decisions was to terminate that program which produced not only power but medical isotopes. Let’s not forget he cancelled among other things the neutron bomb program and other military weapons programs while he loaned the USSR a Cray super computer to “modernize their automobile” industry which they immediately put to use in their weapons programs
Sorry I got a bit off topic.
Grandpa worked on the Manhattan Project, Dad worked at FFTF and others, and in 1971 I was a Nuke Weapons Specialist in the USAF.
Not off topic for me.
I have no way of knowing, but 3rd Generation “nuclear” had to be rare in 71.
