Engineers achieve 'pivotal' breakthrough on quest to create new-age nuclear reactor: 'Nothing similar anywhere in the world'

Engineers at the Idaho National Laboratory have completed a successful test campaign of a coolant system for nuclear microreactors that have the potential to launch the world into the next energy age.  Carlo Parisi, one of the engineers, envisioned creating a next-gen cooling system for the Microreactor Applications Research Validation (Marvel) project. Five years later, it's now a reality and marks "a milestone of innovation in the nuclear sect…
