Nuclear fusion, an energy generation method driven by the combination of two hydrogen atoms, has long been sought for its potential as a near-limitless source of energy. In the pursuit of cheap and ...

About 60 years ago, Russian physicist Lev Artsimovich said nuclear fusion “will be ready when society needs it”. For decades, scientists have tried to recreate the fusion reaction that powers the sun, ...

Using nuclear fusion, the process that powers the stars, to produce electricity on Earth has famously been 30 years away for more than 70 years. But now, a breakthrough experiment done at the DIII-D ...

RocketStar, a US based startup, has successfully demonstrated an electric propulsion unit for spacecraft that uses nuclear fusion-enhanced pulsed plasma. During ground tests the process did create ...

Successful fusion experiments in the US and UK raise hopes for achieving clean and abundant energy through nuclear fusion. Challenges remain in scaling up fusion processes to commercially viable ...

In the growing race to harness the sun’s power for energy on Earth, a small Tustin company hopes the progress it’s making will lead the firm to the head of the pack. “We have the goods,” says Gerald ...
