Fusion is energy's future
Physicist Steven Cowley is certain that nuclear fusion is the only truly sustainable solution to the fuel crisis. In his short talk he explains how fusion works and what steps we need to do to actually get energy from fusion reactors.
Opinon: Mr. Cowley actually says that fusion technology needs another ten billion dollars to work, not to mention that just recently big and expensive fusion experiments were done. I always think, if things are so expansive, maybe it is not the right time for it. Because in ten years from now on, our whole technology will be on a whole new level. And with that technology it is reasonable to assume, we can have this fusion experiments for a lot less money - but maybe with better results.
