A Major Step Towards Nuclear Fusion As Researchers Confirm Scientific Ignition
On Aug. 8, 2021, scientists took a laser the size of three football fields and focused all 192 of its beams of light on a capsule of hydrogen the size of a BB pellet.
When 192 laser beams focus on an area that size, it creates temperatures of more than 100 million degrees and pressure of more than 100 billion times the Earth’s atmosphere—conditions similar to that of a star.
Indeed that’s the point: to create ignition, and a fusion future, scientists are essentially trying to make mini suns and possibly an inexhaustible form of green energy.
Moreover, on Aug. 8, 2022, three peer-reviewed papers confirmed what the above researchers have known for the past year….
