Part 2 of 2 Parts (Please read Part 1 first)
     The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) in France is an example of magnetic confinement fusion. ITER has recently been delayed until 2039 rather than 2035 which had previously been announced. The cost has risen an additional cost of five billion dollars.

Nuclear Fusion 75 - Researchers At Lehigh University Use Mayonnaise To Understand Plasma Behavior - Part 1 of 2 Parts

Part 1 of 2 Parts
     In the quest to harness nuclear fusion as a nearly limitless and clean energy source, researchers have turned to mayonnaise. This household condiment is assisting scientists at Lehigh University to understand complex fluid dynamics that take place during fusion reactions. Their research will potentially pave the way for more efficient fusion processes.
