Hi Chris! What an awesome opportunity- thanks for fielding our questions!

• Did you have to pass through Customs or some other international checkpoint when you landed in Kazakhstan?

Ah, the ol' Reddit Perlma-roo

He's right. The Russians played with fire when Chernobyl happened by turning off the safety mechanisms and inducing a chain reaction. Fukushima was a "large scale nuclear disaster" and only three people died, and they died from a crane.

The total deaths from nuclear power in the United States: 64

The total deaths from radiation at nuclear plants in the US: 0

Nuclear has an insanely good safety record, and large-scale contamination or nuclear waste are problems that have never existed in the United States from nuclear power.

Nuclear weapons have egregious environmental costs over the past few decades, but people are simple and can't see the difference.

Anyone looking for more information, I've made a sourced synopsis here.

When they designed it, they made it as durable as possible. It's got ridiculous amounts of armor, and it can still fly when one of its two engines gets completely ripped off.
