Fusion propulsion sounds like the ultimate breakthrough for reaching Mars, the outer planets, and even the stars beyond. But this episode reveals a much darker and bigger reality: any engine powerful ...

Systemic candidiasis is an opportunistic fungal infection that has been difficult to treat effectively. Research published in a paper in the April edition of Cell Host & Microbe suggests that immune ...

Space propulsion company Pulsar Fusion has achieved “first plasma” in its Sunbird nuclear fusion rocket, designed to propel rockets faster than any object has ever traveled. Reading time 2 minutes ...

Nuclear fusion originates in our sun and other stars. Immense pressure and high temperatures in the core create a reaction, ultimately preventing it from collapsing under the force of gravity. "The ...

The ILIOS consortium has been appointed as the construction partner for the UK's STEP Fusion programme, while Kinectrics has been named as the design and fabrication partner for the UKAEA-Eni H3AT ...

Fusion energy may be one of the most promising clean power sources of the future—but only if scientists can precisely measure the extreme, fast-moving plasmas that make it possible. A new U.S.

The U.S. government has launched the process to develop a regulatory framework to develop fusion machines as emerging nuclear technologies. This step to advance fusion machines was announced Feb. 26 ...

A clear comparison of nuclear fission and fusion, explaining how each process releases energy and why scientists are studying their potential for power generation. Donald Trump messed with the wrong ...

The public filing of the Form F-4 marks an important milestone in the transaction, moving General Fusion closer to becoming the first publicly traded pure-play fusion company. The proposed transaction ...

An awe-inspiring science project by a Dallas ISD seventh-grader is now drawing national attention, as the student works to secure a Guinness World Record as the youngest person to achieve nuclear ...
