Enron, the infamous energy company that went from $100 billion in revenue to bankrupt in a matter of months, is back…sorta.

The company re-incorporated in 2024, and held a splashy reveal of their new revolutionary product, the Enron Egg, a sleek, miniature nuclear reactor, meant for ‘suburban residential life’.

If you’re confused, that’s okay.

Enron, the energy company, isn’t really back. Indeed, it was purchased by a satirical group, and their futuristic nuclear egg isn’t real, either.

However, a visit to their website might make you think otherwise, with no mention of it or its revolutionary product being satire.

Check out the reveal video below.

The product reveal video looks entirely legitimate, with their CEO Connor Gaydos explaining the revolutionary technology, and their head of technology, Daniel Wong, explaining how the egg works.

With a ten-year running life, this nuclear powered egg even has technical imagery explaining its uranium zirconium hydride-fueled reactor.

Of course, a true miniature nuclear reactor at home would be an extraordinarily dangerous piece of technology.

Enron’s return, along with their Egg, is an elaborate joke, one devised by Gaydos, who is also the founder of Birds Aren’t Real, a satirical conspiracy theory.
