Idaho lab produces first-ever fuel for fast molten salt reactor experiment, opening door to maritime commercial reactor deployment
DOE/Idaho National LaboratoryScientists at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) have achieved a historic breakthrough in nuclear energy by launching full-scale production of enriched fuel salt for the Molten Chloride Reactor Experiment (MCRE)—the world’s first test of a molten chloride salt fast reactor.
Military academy alumni reflect on service and leadership at INL ahead of Army-Navy game
DOE/Idaho National LaboratoryThe 2025 Army-Navy college football game kicks off Dec. 13 in Baltimore, Maryland, continuing one of America’s most storied rivalries.
First played in 1890, Army-Navy has endured through wars, peace and generations of cadets and midshipmen. Army-Navy stands apart as more than game — it’s a national tradition that honors service and sacrifice. Every player on the field has taken an oath to defend the nation with their lives. Its traditions embody duty, discipline and respect between rivals who serve the same nation.
Solid-state ionics: Review article reveals structural blueprint for superionic conductors
Advanced Institute for Materials Research (AIMR), Tohoku UniversityA 2024 review by Sau, Orimo, and co-workers reveals universal design principles for fast ion conductors by organizing materials according to their structural frameworks rather than chemical composition. This approach identifies key features—3D interstitial networks, polarizable lattices, cooperative ion motion—that enable solid electrolytes to achieve liquid-like ionic conductivities, advancing all-solid-state battery development.

Lapland’s next hotspot after Santa? Locals in Torne Valley want sustainable tourism, not overtourism
University of Oulu, FinlandIn Finland, Lapland’s tourism has grown so rapidly that Rovaniemi, the region’s capital and number‑one destination, where Santa Claus has his office, is already operating at full capacity. Attention has therefore turned to the next rising destinations in Lapland—one of which has been found along the Swedish border in Torne Valley, an area with a long and rich but largely forgotten tourism history.
