It hasn’t yet proved itself, but with Tokamak and all the developed countries investing in it as well as Bill Gates, it would really inspire people and back nuclear fusion like no other people could.

There has been significant development in the last few years and for the first time ever, they had more energy output than they put in.

Basically, nuclear fusion is creating a small sun on earth. Creating 120 million degrees while constructing a stable system to create the energy output from the plant.

Tokamak is the leading project for nuclear fusion and they were able to create a reactor that reaches the desired…
