Most people are familiar with the sun and the raw power that it possesses. Nuclear fusion is responsible for lighting up the Milky Way Galaxy and Earth. It has been the dream of scientists to harness the power of the sun right here on Earth. Scientists have found that the sun’s power comes from combining atoms. In order to combine atoms, …show more content…
The answer does not lie alone in nuclear fusion, but is a clear component. Nuclear fusion alone cannot provide for all of the energy needs of humans, as a more diverse network of power generation is key to preventing blackouts and providing a stable electrical grid. Scientists around the world are contributing time and money in their tireless pursuit of the development of fusion and along the way have made many major breakthroughs in other science fields. In the next ten years hopefully humans can finally find an alternative solution to meet our energy needs that is clean, renewable and
