This is awesome! Marching ahead of others, NIF is lighting the path to fusion .. the ultimate clean energy. We need to support the successor fusion project as well .. LIFE. Between ITER, NIF, Z machine, and even independent efforts such as Focus Fusion I think we'll definitely see 100% clean aneutronic fusion energy before 2030. The only reason we don't have fusion energy today is because the budgets were cut by 90% in the late 70s. Finally researchers are getting the machines they dreamed of.
