Othon Luiz Pinheiro da Silva (born 25 February 1939) is a Brazilian physicist, mechanical and nuclear engineer, vice admiral of the Brazilian Navy Naval Engineers and Technicians Corps. He had also served as president of state-owned company Eletronuclear.

Othon's biography is closely related to Brazil's nuclear program. He is recognized and has received numerous honors for having been one of the main people responsible for developing a technology for enriching uranium called ultracentrifugation. This allowed the country to become independent by mastering the entire nuclear energy production chain, ensuring the construction of the SN Álvaro Alberto (SN-10) nuclear-powered submarine and the supply of the country's nuclear power plants.

The vice-admiral was first arrested in Operation Radioactivity, the 16th phase of Operation Car Wash, triggered by the allegations of Dalton Avancini, a former executive of the Camargo Corrêa construction company. He was later arrested again in Operation Pripyat, an offshoot of the previous operation, which investigated allegations of corruption at Eletronuclear.

Othon was sentenced to 43 years in the first instance by Judge Marcelo Bretas and was held at the Rio Meriti Marine Base in Duque de Caxias, in the Baixada Fluminense. He was released on a writ of habeas corpus granted in October 2017 by the Federal Regional Court of the 2nd Region. In 2022, the Federal Regional Court of the 2nd Region reviewed the conviction and replaced the prison sentence with restrictions on his rights.

This whole Operation Car Wash was a CIA-backed operation to destabilize the Pink Wave governments during the 2010s. Its aim was to arrest popular left-wing leaders, coup governments, install puppets and de-industrialize the economy.

I mean, Cuba used to have nuclear weapons in the 1960s. And, with Soviet help, they were building a nuclear power plant in the 1980s. Today, Cuba will only have a nuclear power plant if the US relaxes the embargo to allow European and Chinese nuclear experts to go to Cuba.

Brazil and Argentina tried to develop nuclear weapons during the 1970s and 1980s. When the US found out about this, it began to antagonize the military juntas and cut off their aid.

Eventually, they gave up on making nuclear missiles. But they still have the capacity and the tools to make them. I remember that, during the 2000s, Brazil was advocating the suspension of sanctions against Iran, because they said that Iran would only use nuclear energy for peaceful purposes. The US tried to force Brazil to show the tools that the Brazilian government had developed to enrich uranium, which is still a state secret.

And during the 2010s, before the 2016 coup, the Brazilian navy had a semi-secret project to develop a nuclear submarine with the help of France. This submarine would have the capacity to carry nuclear warheads and intercontinental missiles. But then the coup happened and the CIA called for the arrest of the head of the program. It seems that Lula da Silva and Macron have restarted the program again, but we'll see how long it takes.

Elon also tried to claim the guy who saved the kids who got stuck inside the cave in Thailand was a pedo, because he said Elon Musk's tech was garbage and he wasn't helping.

By 9 July, Musk had arrived at the rescue site and visited Cave 3. He commented that the "mini-sub" was ready if needed and that it would be left in Thailand should it be needed for the rescue or for future events. However, the submarine was not used during the rescue, as it was deemed impractical by those in command of the rescue.

Vern Unsworth, one of the British volunteer cave rescue divers, ridiculed the "mini-sub" as a PR-stunt, in retaliation for which Musk publicly accused Unsworth of paedophilia, and hired a private investigator in an attempt to discredit him. Musk issued a public apology to Unsworth after Unsworth unsuccessfully sued him for defamation
