Fusion breakthrough could be climate, energy game-changer WEWS: Physics Professor Harsh Mathur broke down a “major scientific breakthrough” in the decades-long quest to harness fusion, the energy that powers the sun and stars, which in the future could create a carbon-free energy source. “Basically all our energy needs could be taken care of, if a practical and clean fusion source were achieved,” he said. “I’m dreaming over here.” |
