Bill Gates' TerraPower, Moon Dust, and Dyson Spheres

7 minutes

In today's episode of "10 Minutes with Sami", we explore three amazing news stories from the world of science and technology. We begin with the ambitious initiative of Bill Gates and his company TerraPower, who have started the construction of a cutting-edge nuclear plant in Wyoming, aiming to revolutionize nuclear energy and support both the environment and the local economy.

Next, we move to the Moon, where scientists have discovered that moon dust could be used to produce rocket fuel and combat climate change, including the proposal of a lunar solar shield. Finally, we discuss the exciting discovery of seven stars in our galaxy that could be harboring Dyson spheres, hypothetical megastructures created by advanced alien civilizations, although with possible natural explanations like galactic dust.
