Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value	Fair Value Fair values are based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e. an exit price). Fair value measurements are reported in one of three levels reflecting the valuation techniques used to determine fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: •Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; •Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and •Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which include management’s own assumption about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. The Company measures the value of its money market securities on a regular basis. The fair value of its money market securities, totaling $12,035 and $9,996,155 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, are based on Level 1 inputs and are included within cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheets.
