Livermore and AMPERA Are Teaming Up for Thorium Fuel Vibes

So, like, Lawrence Livermore and AMPERA are teaming up to whip up some next-level nuclear fuel with thorium-232. They're all about making TRISO magic happen, using this wild technique called liquid-metal jetting to craft those perfect thorium particles. The goal? Compact nuclear power that’s way safer and cooler than the old-school stuff. Who knew thorium could be the glow-up we all needed in energy?
