In a Jersey basement, teen scientist builds his own nuclear device
This is not nuclear fission, the atom-splitting reaction at a nuclear power plant that yields radioactive waste. It is fusion, a very small-scale version of the process that takes place in the sun. Scientists around the world have spent decades pursuing fusion as a solution to the world’s energy woes, as it would be a waste-free, emission-free, and virtually inexhaustible source of power.
