Thanks for the answer.

Could I suggest however that we leave this discussion here.
The thread, which was started two years ago, was about an ESA study.
The merits and possibilities of Pu238 production for RTGs has been discussed and debated elsewhere.

On past experience, the issue can run too close to breaching UMSF Rule 1.2 on contentious issues. Thanks.
