The_Popo posted... Fusion is the reaction that powers our sun and it works by smashing two heavy atoms together. This requires extreme pressure and extreme heat but trying to recreate the conditions in a lab is "super difficult," noted Garland. Wut? Hydrgen atoms are the 'lightest' atoms in the universe. They aren't 'heavy'. --- "History shows again and again that nature points out the folly of man. Go go Godzilla!" Godzilla - Blue Oyster Cult ... Copied to Clipboard!

ElatedVenusaur posted... Can't wait for capitalism to monetize fusion and completely undercut its revolutionary potential. While I don't think your cynicism is entirely misplaced, the drive to make fusion energy cost-effective / economically viable will be the true transitional threshold from 'sci-fi pipe dream' to 'everyday reality.' In order for the industry to reach the point of being able to jack up prices, they first have to invest the time and money to make the technology cheap and efficient; so it's a necessary evil. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read https://imgur.com/1WshTZu - by DB_Insider https://imgur.com/eW67nT8 - by Wii_Shaker ...

I'm not a nuclear engineer Fusion doesn't split atoms, but... fuse them. For example: One hydrogen atom + one hydrogen atom... fuses into one deuterium isotope of hydrogen atom and a bunch of energy. One deuterium isotope of hydrogen atom + one hydrogen atom... fuses into one tritium isotope of hydrogen atom and a bunch of energy. One tritium isotope of hydrogen atom + one tritium isotope of hydrogen atom... fuses into one helium atom, 2 hydrogen atoms, and a bunch of energy. (At least, that's what happens in the sun.) --- "History shows again and again that nature points out the folly of man. Go go Godzilla!" Godzilla - Blue Oyster Cult ... Copied to Clipboard!
