=====Fusion is the power of the future ... and the future isn't as far away as it used to be===== | |||

Here’s a quick primer: Fission is the process in which large atoms are split into smaller ones. Fusion is a process in which small atoms are pushed together into larger atoms. It may seem surprising, but both processes generate a lot of energy. Fission is the process behind every existing nuclear power plant today and was also what powered the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Fusion is at the heart of the much more powerful “hydrogen bombs” that have, thank God, never been used in war. It’s also the power behind exactly 0% of the world’s electricity. | |||
