The difference from cold fusion is that NASA is blasting the lattice with gamma rays, which is what gives deuterons the energy to fuse.
Whether there's a chance of getting net power that way, I have no idea, but at least it's not depending on previously unknown nuclear reactions.

Party like it's 1989. I agree with the grandparent commenter: zero credibility here, this group is doing nothing but trolling people.
