While the world's largest laser spends days and sometimes a week freezing a smooth hydrogen layer inside each of its fuel capsules, a US startup grew the layer in two to three hours and it came out smooth enough to pass that laser's own spec, on a design that fires five times the energy and would not need it to
10+ hour, 33+ min ago (675+ words) Sep 14, at 3:30pm ET Every fusion story you read is about the laser. How much energy it fires, how often it fires, how big a building it needs to sit in. The fuel gets a sentence, maybe two. But if you…...
