Lawmakers introduced a package of bills to support nuclear fusion research, in hopes of creating a nuclear "Silicon Valley" ...

Theoretically, Sunbird's tremendous speeds could cut mission times to Mars in half, from seven to eight months to about four.

Lithium-6 is a crucial material for nuclear fusion reactors, but isolating it is challenging – now researchers have found a ...

The dream of nuclear fusion has been chased by some of the world’s brightest minds for decades. It’s easy to see why — ...

Researchers have found an environmentally safer way to extract the lithium 6 needed to create fuel for nuclear fusion reactors. The new approach doesn’t require toxic mercury, as conventional methods ...

Satellite imagery has revealed that China is building a massive laser-driven nuclear fusion facility in Mianyang, a move that could shift global power dynamics in energy and defense. The scale and ...

So Jarrott and his Focused Energy colleague Jacob Peterson decided to set off on their own, founding Hexium with an eye ...

Science can’t be rushed, but fusion’s true believers think capturing the sun in a bottle could light humanity’s future.

It’s rarely appreciated just how much more complicated nuclear fusion is than nuclear fission. Whereas the latter involves a process that happens all around us without any human involvement, and ...

Unlike conventional chemical rockets, Sunbird relies on nuclear fusion – a process that replicates the energy production at the core of stars – to propel spacecraft.

Scientists are conducting experiments to generate clean energy through fusion, the same sub-atomic reaction that powers our Sun, with the aim of constructing plants that produce more energy than they ...

That engine—the Duel Direct Fusion Drive, or DDFD—is what sets Sunbird apart. It uses nuclear fusion, the same energy process ...
