The folks at the national Ignition Facility decided to demonstrate fusion by focalise the energy of 192 extremely sinewy lasers onto a tiny target area . They certainly proved their concept by producing a one megajoule laser gibe . Yeah , that ’s somewhat brawny .
This demo is being proclaimed as a “ key dance step towards nuclear merger ” by the National Nuclear Security Administration . After all , this is apparently the first time such a degree of laser vim was reached . More experiment will occur in the summer of this class , but you may start with the pewpew jokes now .
