Title: The tiny diamond sphere that could unlock clean power
Post by: Freddy on March 13, 2023, 16:16:57 PM
QuoteAt 1:03am on Monday 5 December, scientists at the National Ignition Facility in California aimed their 192 beam laser at a cylinder containing a tiny diamond fuel capsule.

That powerful burst of laser light created immense temperatures and pressures and sparked a fusion reaction - the reaction which powers the sun.

This does look promising, tricky to pull off but definitely promising.
