Physicists Say $15 Billion Fusion Machine Cannot Work

Original: This $15 Billion Nuclear Fusion Machine Can’t Work, Physicists Say

Physicists are arguing that a roughly $15 billion nuclear fusion machine under development cannot achieve its goal, according to a widely shared commentary drawing on expert criticism. The claim has reignited debate over whether the massive international fusion project can ever deliver net energy, with supporters defending the research and skeptics questioning the huge public investment.

Why now: Fresh criticism from physicists has challenged the viability of a flagship multibillion-dollar fusion project, prompting debate about its funding and feasibility.
