Look inside this lab where scientists are recreating the energy of the sun to produce nearly unlimited clean energy (via CNBCMakeIt)

Particle beam accelerators hold the slammed-together plasma in place so that fusion can happen.

"The Norman milestone gives us a high degree of confidence that our unique approach brings fusion within grasp technologically and, more important, economically," Binderbauer said in a written statement.But using hydrogen-boron, "requires much much higher temperatures to achieve fusion, so is much more difficult," Holland says.

But 50 million degrees Celsius is still not hot enough to create what is called "net energy." With the present technology, fusion usurps all the energy it creates to sustain its own reaction, leaving no net energy to power other things.
