The issue with fusion has been the same for the last 50 years. Harvesting the gamma’s full electron volt right out of the reaction. We’re still 50+ years away

The issue with fusion has been the same for the last 50 years.
Harvesting the gamma’s full electron volt right out of the reaction.
We’re still 50+ years away. Nothing in modern technology suggests otherwise.
Science media has to explain why billions are dumped into these programs each year (as though edge science isn’t enough.)
In the meantime, everyone will be happy if we can harvest just enough to make the cost of the exchange worth while. most optimistically through harvesting the heat from a sustained reaction (which is 1000 x less potential).
