Deep Fission has delivered a non-nuclear prototype reactor canister to its testing site in Kansas. This hardware completed fabrication and hydrostatic testing, marking the start of a proof-of-concept program. The company intends to use this equipment to validate installation workflows and infrastructure readiness for its underground borehole reactor design.

The project utilizes a pressurized water reactor design intended for deployment one mile underground. By using a deep borehole, the company aims to leverage the surrounding water column for cooling and pressure management. This validation program serves as a precursor to future nuclear-fueled operations and remains subject to ongoing regulatory permitting and engineering review.
