Previously, practical nuclear fusion to generate power was thought to be about 20 years off. Now, the latest info indicates that it's only 19-1/2 years away. Progress!!

Instead of being 30 years away, now practical fusion power is only 29-1/2 years away.

@elmarmoelzer2229 All these supposed timetables that these companies are touting have one, and only one, purpose: to secure ongoing funding for their (probably) unachievable goal(s) of practical, economically viable power generation via this type of (yet to be proven) technology. IOW, I'll believe it when I see it. Cheers.

@elmarmoelzer2229 Nuclear fusion power MIGHT be feasible if they can somehow generate enough (synthetic) gravity to kick start the entire process. Such as an artificial micro-singularity that can mimic the enormous gravitational field of the sun. How such a thing could be produced or controlled is beyond my reckoning. Contrary to what most people think, thermonuclear fusion is not such a common occurrence in nature. It requires just the right size and right type star of the correct size, mass and age, with the proper angular declination, and an abundance of the lighter elements to initiate/ support fusion. Plus, it would ideally be in an isolated part of the galaxy, so as not to be affected by the gravitational fields of other stars or black holes. As the saying goes, hope springs eternal. Hope you’re right, but I fear you’re not.
