For the past two years, The Orion Project has worked to raise funds
to build a facility where we can bring scientists and inventors together
in a peaceful type of Manhattan Project for energy - to develop new

still using predominantly fossil fuels - the same fuels used in the
1800s - can be illustrated by our recent experience.

with the Board of Directors and took a contract home to read and sign,
but called us within three days saying that he was being deployed abroad
