A few years ago, Jim Sanborn (also the Kryptos sculpture guy?!) built a fission device based on an early Fermi/Bohrs/Teller experiment from 1939: http://jimsanborn.net/main.html#museuminstallations I got the impression from his talk that he was more worried about DHS than NRC cracking down while working on it. It wasn't ever turned on while it was in the museum, but just getting near the device probably left me with a greater sense of awe than even the Apollo 11 capsule. On the shoulders of giants, certainly, but one guy built this. |
