A New Way to Achieve Nuclear Fusion: Helion - Kornee - Dec 22, 2022
Easily the most intelligently and comprehensively presented vid covering arguably the #1 front runner in the 'clean energy future' Fusion race:

Along the way, it becomes clear ITER, like NIF, is destined to be an expensive white elephant that will continue chugging on for all the wrong reasons.
Even so, Helion itself is inherently horribly complex, and projected 2024 commercial scale debut a fantasy that will keep getting pushed further out.
I would not invest $$$ (assuming it goes public) expecting a windfall return.

So Helion is yet another 'fusion breakthrough tech' scam. Just how such hyped ventures get as far as they do is problematic and disgraceful.
