The Nuclear Fusion Breakthrough In Context
Robert Rapier, Forbes, Senior Contributor
Press Release: January 15, 2023, 03:19pm EST
Last month the National Ignition Facility at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) in California announced a significant breakthrough in nuclear fusion research. Since then, a number of people have asked me what this breakthrough really means.
First, let’s discuss some basics of nuclear fusion. Today’s nuclear power plants are based on nuclear fission, which is the splitting of a heavy isotope like uranium-235 into two smaller isotopes. (Isotopes are just different forms of an element).
In simple terms, nuclear fission is like shooting a tiny bullet at the center of the isotope, which causes it to become unstable and split. When it splits, it releases a tremendous amount of energy (mass and energy are related by Einstein’s famous equation E = Mc2). That energy can then be turned into electricity.
However, one of the primary objections to nuclear fission is that the byproducts of fission are highly radioactive, and many of them are long-lived. In other words, they pose a danger to life unless properly handled. These radioactive byproducts are why some are opposed to nuclear power.
Nuclear fusion, which is the source of the power for stars like our sun, is different. With fusion, you are forcing smaller isotopes together to form larger isotopes. Typically this involves combining isotopes of hydrogen — the smallest element — to form helium. This reaction releases even more energy than the fission reaction, but more importantly it doesn’t produce any long-term radioactive byproducts. That’s why nuclear fusion is often called the “holy grail” of energy production.
So, what’s the problem? Those small hydrogen isotopes are highly resistant to fusing. It takes tremendous pressure and high temperatures (as are present in the sun) to force them to fuse. That’s very different from nuclear fission, which takes place relatively easily. Thus, although fusion can be achieved in nuclear weapons, researchers have spent decades trying to create a controlled fusion reaction that could be used for energy production.
Over the years, many “breakthroughs” have been announced. The one that was announced last month was that for the first time, scientists got more energy out of the fusion process than they had to put in. Previous efforts that had achieved fusion required more energy inputs than the fusion reaction produced.
So, this does mark a significant breakthrough. But how close are we to developing commercial fusion reactors?
Here is an analogy I have used to put it in context. There were many milestones on the way to commercial airline travel. The Wright Brothers flew the first successful powered flight in history in December 1903. It would be another 16 years before the first transatlantic flight. But, the first widely successful commercial airliner, the Boeing 707 wouldn’t be introduced until 1958.
The long-running joke has always been that commercial nuclear fusion is 30 years away. In reality, that simply means we still can’t quite see the complete pathway to get there. The recent breakthrough is certainly a milestone on the path to commercial nuclear fusion. But we may still be 30 years away from seeing commercial realization of nuclear fusion.

Promise Post
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.” Matthew 11:28-30

Hello, I hope you will be able to attend our meeting this Sunday (June 13th) morning at 10:45AM and at 6PM at Ashland Assembly of God (525 Blackburn Ave.) Ashland, Kentucky. Come and join us in worshiping the Lord and learning his Word. We want to believe God with you for healings, miracles and whatever you may need in your life! God answers prayers and His mercy and grace abound for everyone! We will see you there!
Do you feel like you can't go on?
There are times when we have felt that today would be our last, thinking tomorrow would never come. Anxieties of Life can weigh heavy on our Mental Health. Would you believe that you can find the Answers in the Bible to WHY you feel the way you do?
Please read the following scriptures. (2 Timothy 3:1-5) Did you notice the first verse reads, '...in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here'? This allotment of time is a Conclusion of a System of things. This time period of distress pangs is known as the Last Days. It's not the end of the world, but rather the end of wickedness that permeates the world of mankind, righteous and unrighteous alike. This time period will soon come to an end. These anxieties you feel today will evaporate and dissolve for those who become survivors of the Last Days. Notice the instruction of what to do in 2 Timothy 3:2-5? It says, '...and from these turn away.'
The scriptures provide a roadmap for certain ones to escape the time of distress. "During that time {Jesus Christ} will stand up, the Great Prince who is standing in behalf of your people. And there will occur a time of distress such as has not occurred since there came to be a nation until that time..." But notice the ending of this verse. "And during that time your people will escape, everyone who is found written down in the book." (Daniel 12:1)
Remember, "Bad associations spoil useful habits." (1 Corinthians 15:33) "Now, O Israel, what is Jehovah your God asking of you? Only this: to fear Jehovah your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve Jehovah your God with all your heart and all your soul," (Deut 10:12) "At that time those who fear Jehovah spoke with one another, each one with his companion, and Jehovah kept paying attention and listening. And a book of remembrance was written before him for those fearing Jehovah and for those meditating on his Name." (Malachi 3:16)
The Bible tells us, "Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit." (Pslams 34:18) Also, we have a helper in the His Only Begotten Son Jesus Christ whom states, "Come to me, all you who are toiling and loaded down, and I will refresh you." (Mat 11:28)

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ we urge you to continue prayer for the ministry of Darshan Churvh in a small village of Nepal .We have been serving God all over Nepal among very bacward and discriminated communities from rural villages and hill areas .Darshan Church is in service of God with commitment and has a goal to reach as many as possible souls with gospel and save people in the kingdom of God.Nepal is a small country situated in Asia continent and has population around 30000000 people with diverse topography , religions, culture, castes and ethnic groups. There are still many villages in terai region and hilly regions of Nepal where the life survival of people is very difficult due to lack of employment, education, water, electricity and transportation facilities. Nepal is a type of conservative social oriented country where people from various communities are discriminated and isolated on the basis of their caste and culture and such groups are isolated from other societies and are deprived of education employment and other facilities provided from government. These communities have hard time to maintain their survival and run their lives. Their children don't get privillege to have education near by because they live in rural villages and isolated territory from towns and they need to walk more than five or six hours to get to town from their settlement. Our goal is to reach to every communities that have lost their hope and yet have not heard gospel , even they have not heard name Jesus. Darshan Church has been reaching the communities from such isolated background with hope in Lord Jesus by all possible ways , helping the needy, providing basic education for children in their own communities, scholarship plan, helping widows , orphans and old aged. Our main goal is to spread in every corner of Nepal but at present Nepal government doesn't allow Christians to share gospel in public and Hindu religious communities have been threatening Christians not to preach gospel but we can not stay silence and since twenty two years we have been reaching to the possible villages and corners of hilly regions with gospel. We share love of Jesus with words , action and attitude. Everything Darshan Church is doing is with Single effort and its tough for us to meet all necessities due to insufficient financial stuffs to run village after villages.we need prayer love and support from people like you to continue our mission in Nepal.please remember in prayer that we may find support from people who love to help the servants of God in these discomforting areas. We promise all our well wishers and prayer warriors that we will be providing all details of your donation to you personally and provide all evidences clear to the people who love to help us with prayer. Please check our website and pray for us .we appreciate any help you make to Darshan Church......You can visit our facebook page by clicking the link below.........https://www.facebook.com/Darshan-Church-Beltar-Nepal-173150410145714/
Good afternoon dear friends
we heartly offer thanks to all of you for your prayer and love towards Darshan Church.
Darshan Church is on work for constructing a church in a village where there is challenges of water electricity and transportation to take materials from town.....we have brought some stones and now the work is pending due to not having all materials available on time.
We need to fix water tap to make flow of water and connect electricity too there.....still we are bringing stones to start foundation but due to financial crisis our work has not been run further....and its quite tough to work there because the village is six hours far from town.
Urgently we need to build this church in a village to manage house of prayer and fellowship for our believers from villages.
We have been trying our best with prayer and faith utilizing our efforts and available funds to run this construction and currently needed some more fund to run it smoothly so we request all dear friends to remember in your prayer and also we urge you brothers and sisters as much possible to make help available to Darshan Church.
Please pray, love , support and share this so that we can reach to people who want to help for the ministries of Darshan Church

We humbly request all brothers and sisters for prayer
Darshan Church is currently working on a plan to build a small house of fellowship and prayer in a village named Bhorleni where we have group of believers for a sister church group and formed a regular fellowship there in a rented room since 11 years .Often we were asked to leave rented room or not to have prayer and fellowship there as the Hindu religious communities are threatening christians not to do our regular prayer, meetings and fellowship and often we kept moving from one room to another for rent..Now urgently we have to again leave the place where our believers were gathering for worship and we planned for constructing small prayer house though its a small hut or building however God is going to provide.
Darshan Church often went with such challenges all aroubd Nepal wherever we are sharing gospel and forming church group but we are still in faith and hope in our Lord and praying day and night.
We are currently on work for construction process and the place where we are building a church is 6 hours away from town ....there is no water , electricity and transportation service is difficult to take materials there. As we always serve in all areas through faith and prayer and not having any donation for our ministry and trying to do all with prayer and local resources available from our Church effort.
We believer united effort can make big difference and your help is going to be worth in any aspect of these ministries here in Nepal.
We need prayer love and support from people like you always so that Darshan Church can continue our construction plan and complete on time .
We request all dear friends to remember on prayer and make possible help available to Darshan Church.
Our main goal is to spread gospel in the places where people have not heard yet , to make diciples and form group of believers , provide them place to gather for worship, prayer and regular services for spiritual growth and save lives of people by giving them hope in our Lord Jesus
We aporeciate any help you are making for Darshan Church
