Great to be back in Saint John for this important discussion.
A strong start to Pioneering New Nuclear in Atlantic Canada with today’s Strategic Roundtable on Atlantic Energy Security and New Nuclear Deployment. The roundtable brought together a highly senior group of leaders from across government, utilities, Indigenous organizations, industry, finance, academia, and the broader energy ecosystem for a candid, substantive discussion on the future of energy security and new nuclear deployment in Atlantic Canada. The conversation focused on key issues shaping the region’s energy future, including grid reliability, affordability, regional cooperation, investment readiness, workforce and supply chain capacity, Indigenous partnership, and opportunities for Canada–U.S. collaboration.

Not net positive for the space sector. Big setback for Blue. Ripple effects across Artemis. Glad everyone is ok.
Here's our video of the explosion at Launch Complex 36. It happened about 9 pm ET (0100 UTC) as Blue Origin was beginning a static fire test of its New Glenn rocket. Watch live views: youtube.com/watch?v=thfYPsRq…

Major announcement today from @timhodgsonmt announcing a nuclear energy strategy and funding for micro reactors for the Arctic. @csmc_scms is well positioned to deliver an effective and reliable solution to DND for the benefit of Canada, its sovereignty, and its allies.

FULL CIRCLE: In April 1965, the U.S. launched its first and only space reactor into space. SNAP-10A was a sodium-potassium-cooled fast reactor developed as part of a @DeptofWar R&D project to power a satellite.

Canadian Strategic Missions Corporation is building 2 things future Moon missions will need: power and water. The company just won $1.2M in federal funding for its nuclear microreactor, days after taking top prize in the CSA’s Aqualunar Challenge. betakit.com/canadian-strateg…

Extremely moving words from @Astro_Jeremy. I’m continue to be floored by the humility of these four. They represent so many incredible qualities for the current and future generation to learn to be better humans.
