I want to go to the site of the CP-1 reactor. Not much left but a plaque, but that's where the modern age really began. Apparently you can buy some graphite from the CP-1 as a paperweight, but I'm not sure how legit it is. They say you can buy trinitite too, but the market has a lot of fakes.
- acidburnNSA 3y agoGetting graphite from CP-1 would be a dream of mine. Some of my friends have been given some after climbing the corporate ladder better than I have.
