Tokamaks are machines that are meant to hold and harness the power of the sun. These fusion machines use powerful magnets to contain a plasma hotter than the sun's core and push the plasma's atoms to ...

Fusion has the potential to solve the world's energy demand and climate goals, but questions remain about crossing the technology finish line and scaling up economically.

Investment is surging, and fusion power is expected to come online in the next five to 10 years. Today, at least five companies, including Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS), Helion, Type One and ...

A new AI can “see” what fusion sensors miss, helping stabilize plasma and make reactors more efficient. The breakthrough could push fusion energy closer to becoming a reliable power source.

Zap Energy is trying to replicate on Earth the reactions that power the sun and the stars in pursuit of clean, nearly limitless electricity.

Artificial intelligence is proving to be a critical factor in accelerating the development of nuclear fusion, bringing the promise of clean, baseload energy closer to reality.

The massive, donut-shaped machine, which is also the largest and most powerful tokamak experiment, made headlines when it achieved 69 megajoules (MJ) of energy during a six-second pulse during its ...

A hundred years before the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration released the first image of a black hole in 2019—located at the heart of the galaxy M87—astronomer Heber Curtis had already discovered ...

Even after backlash, Trump again echoed his words at a campaign rally. At his campaign rally in Iowa this week, Donald Trump once again broke new ground, becoming the first leading presidential ...
