Thermonuclear fusion

Thermonuclear fusion is the process of atomic nuclei combining or “fusing” using high temperatures to drive them close enough together for this to become possible. There are two forms of thermonuclear fusion: uncontrolled, in which the resulting energy is released in an uncontrolled manner, as it is in thermonuclear weapons ("hydrogen bombs") and in most stars; and controlled, where the fusion reactions take place in an environment allowing some or all of the energy released to be harnessed for constructive purposes.

Teach Astronomy - Fusion as an Energy Source

http://www.teachastronomy.com/ The only way in which humans have so far harnessed fusion is in a hydrogen bomb, the most violent product of human creation. We're obviously interested in fusion as a power source for a simple reason. What goes in in fusion is light elements like hydrogen,

AWESOME SUPERCONDUCTOR LEVITATION!!!

A quantum levitator it's a circular track of magnets above which a razor-thin disc magically levitates, seeming to defy the laws of physics. The key to the levitator is the disc, which is made of superconducting material sandwiched between layers of gold and sapphire crystal. A piece of fo
