Orb Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Guys! Look at the news! 🙂 Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation. I seek no state of enlightenment. Neither do I remain where no enlightenment exists. Since I linger in neither condition, eyes cannot see me. If hundreds of birds strew my path with flowers, such praise would be meaningless." - A Comment on the 8th Ox Herding Picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orb Posted December 14, 2022 Author Share Posted December 14, 2022 Essentially, for the first time ever, we have created a net gain of energy from fusion. This means we have figured out the physics of fusion energy, the next step is engineering. Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation. I seek no state of enlightenment.

Phil Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 That is amazing. Also sounds like we have a ways to go on powering the lasers… https://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/fusion-breakthrough-net-energy-gain-rcna61326 The inefficient lasers used in the experiment required about 300 megajoules of energy to fire just 2 megajoules of energy into the experiment. The reaction produced about 3 megajoules of energy. Quote Mention YouTube Website Sessions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orb Posted December 14, 2022 Author Share Posted December 14, 2022 @Phil yea its great, they got the physics part down, now all thats left is the engineering part. It's also cool to see how technological advancement is speeding up at an exponential rate. Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation. I seek no state of enlightenment.

It's like every other industry has some alternatives, even if they aren't great. Quote Mention Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
