Why is no one talking about the fact that we just successfully preformed nuclear fusion. This is a absolutely massive deal, and could literally be world changing.,(reply>), @Tommy 50377 you do realise a simple fission reactor takes at least 8 years to build? Good luck building a viable fusion reactor in 2. Did they also say Santa's elves would help build it?,(reply>), @Villiam van Kekem You laugh, and yet in "A New Way to Achieve Nuclear Fusion: Helion" by Real Engineering, the company Helion had said they hope to get a commercially viable fusion reactor up and running by 2024. But I'm sure your experience with nuclear engineering far outweighs theirs, right?,(reply>), @Tommy 50377 2? 😂,(reply>), @Villiam van Kekem Maybe, but it sure as hell isn't certain. This has shown a way it can theoretically work, and now it's all just about getting it to work at a reasonable scale. It might take 20 years to do that, but it also might take 2. I know that I'm not a nuclear engineer, and I'm guessing you're not either. So I don't think we're qualified to estimate a time frame.,(reply>), Yeah, in another 20 years.
