I stand partially corrected - we're closer to the tech than I thought. 450 bases though?

Fascinating device. Similar to the microreactors used in R&D or speciality parts within laboratory equipment.
Back in my day they weren’t 3D printed but two or more sides which were stuck together.

If Kaleidos generates real operating data inside DOME, it could strengthen the broader case that microreactors can work outside the laboratory. It could also sharpen the competitive pressure on rivals that remain at zero-power testing.
