Enron's 'The Egg': A Home Nuclear Reactor?

Enron has unveiled 'The Egg,' a compact home nuclear reactor promising safe, efficient, and affordable energy. Using Uranium-Zirconium Hydride fuel rods, it generates heat via nuclear fission, converting it to electricity with a 3D-printed Inconel heat exchanger. Multiple safety features, including automatic shutdown in overheating and advanced radiation shielding, are highlighted. Enron claims 'The Egg' is significantly cheaper than traditional systems, offering reliable, constant power. However, the safety and viability of home nuclear reactors remain debated, requiring further scrutiny of Enron's claims.
