Welcome to part three of my trilogy on stars' birth, life and death. In last week’s Starwatch column about the life of stars, I told you how stars cook up energy in their cores with nuclear fusion.

As fusion developers around the world race to commercialize fusion energy, TAE Technologies has pioneered the pursuit of the cleanest and most economical path to providing electricity with ...

A California-based group said it has completed the first-ever hydrogen-boron fusion experiments to produce a sustainable fuel for utility-scale fusion power. TAE Technologies on Feb. 28, in a ...

A team at the Colorado School of Mines is working to create hydrogen membranes for use in nuclear fusion power plants. The project, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects ...

Hydrogen can react with other chemicals, and both it and helium can be lost to space. Venus, Earth, and Mars are thought to ...

Future technologies in power, mobility, and manufacturing enabled by the two lightest gases: hydrogen and helium. From the natural gas that underpins power generation to the carbon dioxide emissions ...

A new class of advanced steels needs more fine-tuning before use in system components for fusion energy—a more sustainable alternative to fission that combines two light atoms rather than splitting ...
