Judging by the comments I see most places, the general public's perception of fusion is "magical scifi tech that will never happen."

- hunterpayne 6mo agoThat's because it almost certainly is. Don't hate on the messengers.
- DennisP 6mo agoMy point is, that's a pretty positive view of fusion. They think it's too good to be true, but if it actually happens then I doubt many people will suddenly switch into thinking it's a dirty old explodey thing like fission's public image.
- Cthulhu_ 6mo agoOh I'm sure it'll happen, in like 30 years. After which they'll need to make it commercially viable, build power plants, etc. (also it was 30 years away, 30 year ago)
