A dated plan, with the gates named.
Kronos publishes not just where it's going, but what has to be true at each step — including what isn't proven yet.
Open the physics
Two peer-review papers, two open Zenodo deposits, and a live simulation anyone can run. The breeder design point is solved and reproducible — gain Q 3.424 — and the burner's closing point is published with its conditions.
Prototype
Prototype construction targeted — moving the breeder physics onto hardware and retiring the confinement and blanket gates step by step.
The burner fleet
The commercial generators — Aegis (defense) and MetroVolt (data centers) — delivering firm, carbon-free power, fueled by helium-3 the breeder makes.
Strategic supply & firm power, at scale
A domestic source of the materials the U.S. can't otherwise make, and firm power for AI, industry, and defense — the reason the two machines exist.

The full register of open questions — each with the condition attached — is public.
