WASHINGTON (AP) Scientists announced Tuesday that they have for the first time produced more energy in a fusion reaction than was used to ignite it a major breakthrough in the decades-long quest to harness the process that powers the sun.
The breakthrough at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California used powerful lasers focusing enormous energy on a tiny capsule filled with fuel.
A major breakthrough in nuclear fusion energy was achieved, the first net energy gain. When will the “Holy Grail” of clean energy be available to the grid?
