gollark: You can't (usefully) do fission with deuterium/tritium because of the binding energy per nucleon thing.
gollark: It doesn't have to look nice. My first (working) rocket was just a flat panel with the necessary amounts of engines, tanks, seats and guidance computers.

gollark: Probably one of the attuned crystal ritual things.
