Transcript:

When I think about the next 25 years and how the program will continue to , you know , just be a vital contribution to our security during that time to set us up for most success , to handle a dynamic and unpredictable situation , I go back to those principles , right ? And if we keep those principles strong and fresh and vibrant and current and adhere to them , it will allow us to manage all of this unpredictability in a way that continues to allow the program to contribute vitally to our national security . I think there's a particular opportunity in uh nuclear power , just writ large new nuclear technologies that uh I think the program will want to explore in terms of where the edge of possibility is . These are inspirational things for a lot of our young people and , and big global challenges . And so , you know , as always , the program is gonna find itself at the epicenter of these types of discussions . And so keeping that in mind as well going forward , will I think , keep us all serious and honest and focused on our principles as we continue to impact the way the world thinks about these things ?
