Nuclear fusion has been circulating the news for years, promising the most advanced and most efficient way to generate unlimited amounts of clean energy. And although, the big dream to have that fusion reactor that can solve all energy troubles […]

The new reactor is called Ignitor and, as far as the plans sound, it is ready to surpass ITER as both performance and time to go into production.
