Scientists in the US plan to remove the 28,100kg stainless steel lid on one of the world's most powerful nuclear test reactors for a rare internal overhaul.
The Advanced Test Reactor at the Idaho National Laboratory is being refurbished and improved with new components and experimental capacity, the scientists said in interviews this week.
The nine-month and US$170 million ($220 million) effort, called a core internals changeout, started last month and is scheduled to be finished around the end of the year.
