This is what I was thinking. Wyoming doesn't have an abundance of scientific geniuses that they can afford throwing them away willy-nilly.

If he had went fission, maybe he wouldn't have got in trouble.

Apparently you can't hack into a government super computer and the try to buy uranium without the department of homeland security tattling to your mother.
Hacking used to be so much simpler.... http://youtu.be/ecPeSmF_ikc

Lost World Locked in Stone at Fossil Lake
With just two inhabited buildings and a population of five, Fossil, Wyo., is all but a ghost town today. But as far as ghosts go, the ones at Fossil are pretty remarkable — 50-million-year-old monitor lizards, stingrays and freakishly long-tailed turtles among them.
Fossil showed promise of becoming a train-stop city during America's westward expansion. The town's real golden age, however, may have been the early Eocene, when it was covered in a subtropical lake with an incredible diversity of aquatic life, surrounded by lush mountains and active volcanoes.

This is a 1.33 gigapixel image from the Curiosity Rover. You can pan and zoom in. It's fantastic.

I checked out the video that the gif is from.
He put Mars inside Earth's orbit, too. Who would make that kind of error?

Looks all, for lack of a better term, rendered. Not saying it is but it looks video gamey. Maybe the images are too crisp or something. Could be the planets surface, because of the monotoneish light, makes it look unreal.
