A multimillion-dollar government project is betting that particle accelerators can "burn" through the world's most dangerous ...
After years of self-study and mentorship at a Dallas makerspace, Aidan McMillan hopes his project will open doors for other ...
A persistent asymmetry in fusion exhaust has challenged researchers for years. New simulations show that plasma core rotation, working together with cross-field drifts, determines where particles land ...
For six decades, the Bull Run Fossil Plant in Claxton, Tennessee, powered a region on fossil fuel. Last year, the plant was decommissioned, collapsing the plant's ...
OpenStar Technologies' "Junior" prototype proves that levitated dipole reactors can stabilize superheated plasma.
Helion Energy's fusion breakthrough promises a future of limitless, safe, and clean power by 2028. Nuclear fusion combines ...
What if the key to solving humanity’s energy crisis has been hiding in plain sight, dismissed for decades as an impossible dream? In this overview, Two Bit da Vinci explores how Zap Energy is ...
The big picture: For decades, the promise of fusion power seemed just out of reach – a theoretical miracle of physics that stubbornly refused to move from blueprint to breaker box. Yet in laboratories ...
A reactor at the largest nuclear power station in the world was reactivated on January 21, 2026, for the first time since 2011. Less than six hours later, in the early hours of the next morning, it ...
EAST’s accomplishment is notable since the density limit has long prevented researchers from increasing plasma density past a certain point. Higher plasma density has historically been associated with ...
On the sandy shores of Lake Michigan, set against a backdrop of thick forest, a sharp-angled grey concrete building could be the face of an American nuclear renaissance. The Palisades nuclear plant, ...
NASA and the US Department of Energy are working to develop and deploy a nuclear reactor on the moon’s surface within the next four years — fulfilling one of President Trump’s visions for space ...
