Rosatom, a big Russian company that works with nuclear energy, showed off some cool new technology at an event in India called the India Energy Week.

They talked about small nuclear power plants that can float on water, which would be great for places that are far away and don't have good electricity infrastructure.

They also invited India to work together on some science projects and to join a group of countries that are studying a special kind of nuclear reactor.

Rosatom already has a floating nuclear power plant called the Akademik Lomonosov, which is the only one of its kind in the world.

They want to work with India on many things, like making medicine with nuclear technology, teaching people about nuclear energy, and even using 3D printing and digital solutions.

Rosatom is a really big company with lots of employees and projects all over the world.
