1:25. CORRECTION: it did not generate more energy than it took to trigger the reaction. It simply generated more energy than was directly input into the cylinder. The energy output was not greater than the total combined energy to trigger the reaction.

misleading af, the input is 400MJ is the true input, 3MJ is the output.

Marco Flumino

@Alex Morgan Tritium is rare and on earth is actually very rare. The good thing is we can make tritium in somehow good quantities, just it take a long time and a lot of energy.
Eric Cartmenez
May 28, 2023 at 2:13 pm
@Marco Flumino One of the biggest downsides to deuterium tritium reaction, aside from it being rare and costly to make, is the larger number high energy neutrons compared with other reactions, but other reactions typically require much higher initial temps for fusion and much less energy is given off, several orders of magnitude less…
High energy neutrons are a real pain to deal with though, they make most elements radioactive when they interact and they’re difficult to stop…

Thats the hope for the past 40 years. We now know we can extract more than we put in. Now prob another 40 years prob to keep it under controll and consistent. And prob another 40 years convince the public its safe.. the public doesn’t accept nuclear fission and dont know the difference.
Eric Cartmenez
May 28, 2023 at 1:51 pm
@zip We cannot extract more than we put in with Fusion, not even close… That’s not even the goal of this experiment, this is for nuclear weapons research…
To be specific, the energy they got out was greater than the laser energy used, but hundreds of times more energy was put into the system to make the laser, so it cost far more energy than it gave… News outlets are pretty incapable of honest scientific reporting… They are for some reason nearly always compelled put a silly spin on it or outright lie.

“ignited the first human-caused fusion reaction that generated more energy than it took to create the reaction.”
That is wrong. I’m so sick of the media blowing Fusion progress out of all proportion… Listen to what’s scientists are telling you and if you feel the need to put some journalistic flare on it, do us all a favour and instead slap yourself in the face…
They got back more energy than the lasers energy… But several orders of magnitude more energy was poured into the system to create that laser… They weren’t remotely close to breaking even… And this type of fusion reaction likely never will, it’s for nuclear weapons research, not energy…

Marco Flumino
May 28, 2023 at 12:55 pm
Ehm, actually that is not correct to say that the achieve more power than they put in… Let me explain, yes the achieve a more powerful power generation, that exceeded the input, but they did not put into calculation the entire system input of energy, that is why technically the did and technically they did not. Most scientist just consider the initial system, not all the other systems that you need to make the reactor work…. I am afraid that we are a long way before we can do that!
Jason
May 28, 2023 at 1:20 pm
They made a fusion reaction in a lab that lasted only a small fraction of a second. All they did was use lasers instead of bomb to make the reaction. We already have done fusion in bombs with Hydrogen Bombs. Hydrogen bombs release many times more energy than ignition explosion. So in a sense we already have achieved this milestone with weapons decades ago. This is just the first time not having to blow a big hole in the world to do so.
Nuclear fusion as an energy source may not be possible. The heat and pressure needed to produce something capable of producing constant energy for many years is not limited to technology or intelligence, but the very physics that govern the universe.

The SUN is a fusion reactor. And it’s free. This project is a complete blunder.
Fusion is always a decade away, because it doesn’t work. They just stealing investor money.
Look at the huge facilities that require grid power to proceed. Complete nonsense.

Never gonna happen. Fission has already left fusion in the dust. Fusion’s numbers remain untenable.
We may one day find a way to directly extract the energy from matter. I hope this happens sooner than later. But, it is clear that fusion is not the methodology to do this.
Ted Kord
May 28, 2023 at 10:08 pm
So do we call the extracting process nuke extraction? And how do we extract MORE energy than we put in from a single atom?
Allaces305
May 28, 2023 at 3:57 pm
So let me get this right…. it takes 400mj to send a laser of 2mj to create a reaction of 3mj and this machine is not intended for the future of energy production??

Seems like we are ignoring the fact that there are a number of countries who have access to nukes that can destroy everything in less than a day…..and the people who control the nukes are emotional beings/ can develop mental illness which can influence their mood. And global warming which will keep shrinking global food supply, and increase extreme weather events. Happy days

Most not given this the credit that it deserve. Sure the lasers consume 400 mega Jules. It also takes outside power to start a gas power plant turbine. Now engineering is the next roadblock. magnetic confinement and NIC laser setup should be put together. I am not a professional in any of these field.

It shows… This experiment is for nuclear weapons research, it has nothing to do with energy production and will never produce more energy than put it.
Magnetic confinement with a tokamak is something else entirely and comes with it’s own set of challenges that we aren’t close to overcoming… You can’t just combine two technologies that have entirely separate goals… It makes no sense.
