  • While this is interesting science, what they are trying to do fusing dueterium and tritium, is being worked on already, at much lesser cost by Star Scientific Limited in a process called Muon Catalysed Fusion. See their videos esp. "In the Footsteps of Fusion". Find them on google including the blog by the chairman "The big Picture by Andrew Horvath". Can they provide ECONOMICAL energy much much sooner ? Soon we should know.
