The scientists used lasers to fuse two light atoms into a single one, releasing 3.15MJ (megajoules) of energy from 2.05MJ of input – roughly enough to boil a kettle.

Why do we even study this? Renewables are the only way. This is a waste of money which is a finite resource.

Lemmy is just not big enough to bury shit like that in the flood of useless background noise like reddit.

People will see attempts like this in their feeds, no digging required.
