@AkaSci @sundogplanets city labs looks specialized to work with tritium though per their website, and they have a rather small crew, so yeah, it seems that if nuclear power does get used heavily in space it isn't going to come from these people
also, denser nuclear isotopes would probably be preferable from a power standpoint if you're moving from betavoltaics to a thermal system
"dense" isn't what i want to hear about re-entering debris, so hopefully, it ends here
