[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 1074750, member: 13739"] My A-level physics teacher was adamant that fusion was 'just around the corner', but that was 20 years ago, and we're still a long way off. I did learn all about fusion, including the formulas and equations, but I remember none of it now! If ITER can manage to sustain long term stable reaction though, it'd be huge, even if it's just breakeven. Maintaining a 100 million Celsius torus of plasma hovering in 'mid-air' for extended lengths of time doesn't sound easy though! [/QUOTE]
