U.S. to Announce ‘Holy Grail’ Fusion Breakthrough: Net Energy Gain

, a process which replicates the way energy is created on the sun.

The development has long been considered a “holy grail” of the country’s green power ambitions—leading to totally renewable, unlimited energy. Billions of dollars in both public and private funds have been plowed into similar projects. Scientists, however, are quick to predict that the commercial technology is at least a decade away.

This wouldn’t have happened if Trump was president

The problem is that fusion only happens at stellar interior temperatures, which no physical container can hold. Steel at 30 million degrees? This is been '30 years away' for half a century, now they are saying ten years away. No pollution.

If only nuclear energy was a part of their narrative

Nuclear energy is not part of the green agenda. No new plants with this tech will be built. I'm confused as to why the woke administration would even allow DOE to celebrate.

This seems like a pretty big deal. Should we have a national day of celebration or something? Global celebration even.

U.S. to announce fusion energy ‘breakthrough’Scientists hit a key milestone in the quest to create abundant zero-carbon power through nuclear fusion. But they still have a long way to go. Spoiler Alert: Fusion will never happen. They’ve poured untold billions over decades and are still nowhere close. Fusion will never work without the gravity and pressure of a star. 🤦‍♂️ Arab world will go bankrupt with oil and gas worth 0 We have ITER in france. I dont think fusion energy has had very much funds so i hope that co-operating in europe does help to figure this choice more open.
