It gives its heat to everyone
There has to be an invisible sun
That gives us hope when the whole day's done...

 

What is nuclear fusion and why is it such a big deal?

 

Scientists and engineers have been working on trying to harness this form of energy for decades

 

 

The U.S. Department of Energy on Tuesday announced a breakthrough in nuclear fusion, a method of producing clean energy, that has many people hopeful for the future.

The achievement was reached by scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California. 

Nuclear fusion may be a new concept to many, but scientists have been working on it since the 1940s. However, they have faced a tough challenge: how to produce more energy than it takes to create it. It almost seemed like an insurmountable challenge.

Until today....

I wouldn't put too much stock in this having any real-world applications yet. Big oil is probably already working on a disinformation campaign against it anyway. It will probably be another 50 years away. There might not be a planet worth saving by then anyway.

Yup...I blame gas guzzling Mercedes Benzs.

I don’t know about all that, but getting something to work for five seconds is completely different than getting something to work all the time. I’m pretty sure that most of us will be very, very old before we see fusion reactors in every neighborhood

This is for Mercedes diesel engines.

Mine is a clean burning v6 double overhead cam gasoline engine.
