Unlocking a 50,000-year fuel source from seawater.
The oceans hold an almost inconceivable amount of nuclear fuel, and Fluxnium has found a way to tap into it. Their fibers can extract uranium directly from seawater, a source vast enough to power thousands of generations. It's a practical answer to a persistent energy puzzle, and it feels refreshingly grounded. We're watching this space closely, and if you're building your own ambitious future, you might want to check out our piece on expanding your team with a second Disrupt pass.
Fusion startups find a new frontier in national security partnerships
Fusion's relationship with national security never really faded, it just went quiet. Now, startups are signing defense deals that revive that connection with fresh purpose. We see this as a practical turn, not a nostalgic one. It gives fusion a clearer path to funding and real-world urgency. If you're tracking how energy and security intersect, this is a thread worth pulling. For more on the broader clean energy push, our piece on Fluxnium's seawater uranium extraction fits neatly alongside.
Antares secures $470M to power Air Force bases with small modular reactors
Antares has raised $470 million to build small modular reactors for U.S. Air Force bases, with units sized from 100 kW to 1 MW. That's a focused bet on a specific defense need, and it's a smart one. It signals a practical shift toward energy resilience where it matters most. For a deeper look at how infrastructure bets are reshaping AI and defense, our piece on Anthropic's cloud commitment is worth exploring. This is about building dependable power, not chasing hype.
