Fusion Power a Step Closer After Giant Laser Blast

FROM NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC DAILY NEWS

.

Using the most powerful laser system ever built, scientists have brought us one step closer to nuclear fusion power, a new study says.

The same process that powers our sun and other stars, nuclear fusion has the potential to be an efficient, carbon-free energy source—with none of the radioactive waste associated with the nuclear fission method used in current nuclear plants.

World’s Most Powerful Laser Fired By American Scientists In Pursuit Of Fusion Ignition

.

We’ve just come one step closer to a fully-operational Death Star.

Scientists at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California have fired the most powerful laser shot in the history of the world, setting the record with 1.875 MJ of energy. The historic March 15 firing was just 23 billionths of a second long, but generated 411 trillion watts of peak power.

.

Target Positioner: Before each experiment, a positioner precisely centers the target inside the target chamber and serves as a reference to align the laser beams.
