On December 5, 2022, a group of scientists achieved a major breakthrough in the pursuit of nuclear fusion energy at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California. Using 192 powerful ultraviolet lasers, they demonstrated the possibility of creating energy by replicating the reactions that power the Sun and stars. While the energy output may seem modest, it marks a significant step forward in the decades-long quest for clean, safe, and virtually unlimited energy sources. This achievement has reignited global interest in nuclear fusion, with countries like Germany, the UK, and China investing heavily in fusion research. Private companies are also…
