Description

For the first time in sixty years, a machine on American soil got more energy out of nuclear fusion than the lasers put in, and it runs on seawater. Helion signed a contract with Microsoft to deliver fusion power to the grid by 2028, while Commonwealth's SPARC reactor sits three-quarters built in Massachusetts. One cup of seawater holds the energy of 300 litres of gasoline, no sun required. Subscribe for how fusion could leave solar in the dark.
