Fusion power moves closer to commercialization. Storing data for 10,000 years. Why AI won’t necessarily take your job. All ...

Fusion power has long been sold as the technology that could light our cities with the same process that powers the stars. Now a new line of research suggests those same reactors might also be ...

The stakes of the “race to fusion” are dramatic. Commercial fusion has the potential to deliver nearly unlimited energy by ...

Reactors designed to produce energy from the fusion of atoms could have an unexpected scientific side benefit. An international team of researchers has shown that low-mass dark-sector particles, such ...

Physicists have spent decades chasing two grand technological dreams: harnessing fusion power and uncovering the nature of dark matter. A new theoretical paper now suggests those quests might collide ...

China breaks a historic barrier in nuclear fusion, bringing the dream of nearly infinite energy closer to reality.

Nuclear fusion combines light hydrogen atoms to release energy, similar to the sun's processes. Fusion reactors are inherently safe as they cannot melt down, unlike fission reactors. Achieving ...

Startup Inertia Enterprises Inc. today announced that it has raised $450 million in funding to build a laser-powered fusion reactor. Bessemer Venture Partners led the round. It was joined by Alphabet ...

"One day could provide vast amounts of the type of power we need." Officials unveil ambitious project that could transform power grid: 'First-of-its-kind' first appeared on The Cool Down.

Chinese scientists break a historic barrier and achieve the highest plasma density in a nuclear fusion reactor.

The US has certainly spent the year opening doors to dramatically increase domestic energy production. Part of that has to give the signal that the US will embrace nuclear power in ways it hasn’t for ...
