Physicists Say $15 Billion Fusion Machine Cannot Work

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

Physicists are criticizing a roughly $15 billion nuclear fusion project, arguing that the machine in its current design will not achieve its goal of producing net energy. German physicist Sabine Hossenfelder's commentary on the claims has drawn large attention, fueling debate over whether the enormous public investment in fusion research is justified and whether the project's timelines and expectations are realistic.

Why now: A prominent physicist's criticism of a multibillion-dollar flagship fusion project has reignited public debate over the credibility and cost of fusion energy research.
