GERMAN scientists say they have reached a milestone in a quest to derive energy from nuclear fusion, billed as a potentially limitless, safe and cheap source.
The success comes as a culmination of a nearly two decade project
Nuclear fusion entails fusing atoms together to generate energy ? a process similar to that in the Sun ? as opposed to nuclear fission, where atoms are split, which entails worries over safety and long-term waste.

......heating atoms to more than 100 million degrees..... :o
When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

I will believe it when I see it put in to normal use.  My feeling it that fusion is beyond our ability to tap.  Sure would be a dream come true.
Always move forward. Never look back.
