To one day make nuclear fusion a reliable energy source, scientists will first have to design heat- and radiation-resistant materials

Fusion energy has the potential to be an effective clean energy source because its reactions generate incredibly large amounts of energy. Fusion reactors are intended to reproduce on Earth what happens in the core of the sun, where very light elements fuse and release energy. Engineers can harness this energy to heat water and generate … Read more
