Scientists planning to use a giant laser to create a star on earth: http://edition.cnn.com/2010/TECH/science/04/28/laser.fusion.nif/index.html?hpt=C1 Nothing could possibly go wrong here, right?
Worse case scenario is that the laser beam will aim at other places and burn something else…
@roytang nothing like LHC, yes?
@switchfollows FIRE THE LASER!
Eh? This doesn't seem all that special really… I mean, OK, maybe they'll get a fusion reaction, but it doesn't seem to have anything else going for it, I mean, in terms of harnessing the produced power. Aren't tokamak reactors closer to viability than this?
Fusion (ala Doc Ock's experiment in the Spider-man movie)? Tokamak reactors (like Iron Man's thingamabob)? So when do they start making adamantium?
