MIT researchers confident their fusion reactor is “very likely to work” – ZME Science
It’s one of the holy grails of energy production, and these researchers believe it’s perfectly feasible.
Two and a half years ago, MIT signed an agreement with a startup company to develop a precursor to a practical, emissions-free power plant. Normally, that wouldn’t draw too much attention — but that power plant is not solar nor wind, it’s something entirely different: a fusion reactor.
