We're in a reformation period with our nuclear program. Potentially, nuclear power is a very valuable power source.

We have an active program. We have nuclear weapons, we are a nuclear power. We have an advanced missiles program.

Nuclear fusion has been explored as a potential source of power, but we are not looking at this as an energy source right now.

It's one of those tough things. Had we been able to avoid doing it, we would have.

This discontinuance of your project in no way reflects on the merit of the work or the progress made during its period of support, but is required to enable a new generation of exploration missions within the current budget profile.

Nuclear power is not a miracle key for the future.
