Fusion research? Sure. I hope you aren't expecting practical commercial reactors anytime soon. I believe the current fusion scientists just entering the workforce are hoping for major strides by the end of their CAREER when they finally retire.
- simplicio 6y agoYea, plus we've reached the point where even if you do believe the most optimistic timelines for fusion power development, its not going to come in time to make a meaningful contribution to fighting climate change.
- sudosysgen 6y agoI don't see where that's implied. The scenario that makes sense is that by the time our heavy investments into nuclear pay off and then some, maybe in 80-100 years, we can transition to fusion.
