摘要

Fusion power would not contribute to global warming, acid rain, or other forms of air pollution, nor would it create long-lived radioactive waste. Fusion is the process that powers the sun and the stars. Since the 1950s, scientists and engineers in the United States and around the world have been conducting fusion research in pursuit of the creation of a new energy source for our planet and to further our understanding and control of plasma, the fourth state of matter that dominates the known universe. Generating power through nuclear fusion holds the tantalizing promise of unlimited supplies of clean energy. By the middle of the next century, the world's population will double, and energy demand will triple. This will be due in large part to the industrialization and economic growth of developing nations. The continued use of fossil fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas) will rapidly deplete these limited and localized natural resources. Fusion is perhaps the only option for a truly sustainable, long-term energy source. The fuel is virtually inexhaustible and readily available throughout the world.
