Do you think humans will ever harness the power of Nuclear Fusion?

[Jorici]

We already have.
Through experimental technologies of course.

I should reword that.

Will we ever use it for conventional purposes?

[Ad Bot]

[Slugger]

Yes.

Then we can move to antimatter.
And that's like-

Effing devastating, split that crap, and it's all over.

Like OVER.

WHAT IF THE TERRORISTS GET IT? 

[ZSNO]

/topic

And what horrible resource did you get that from?

[Aphtonites]

WHAT IF THE TERRORISTS GET IT? 

Antimatter Self Delete bomber.
Holy loving stuff.

[Jorici]

And what horrible resource did you get that from?

SEE WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO HERE IS

TAKE A STAR

AND PUT IT IN THIS BOMB

[otto-san]

Antimatter Self Delete bomber.
Holy loving stuff.

OH GOD

D:

SEE WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO HERE IS

TAKE A STAR

AND PUT IT IN THIS BOMB

lol

GG
Nice knowing ya man!

Fusion NOT Fission.

so

that stuff in left 4 dead that made everyone turn into zombies?

lol fusion is not a virus

          Controlled Nuclear Fusion has been achieved by a variety of means, either by electrolysis, lasers or controlled fission, which requires vast amounts of energy - about one year's production of the Hoover Dam in less than a few seconds.  To scale this down to power small devices such as a computer would be stupid, you can't contain it.  Even if you have 1 mililiter of triterium (Hydrogen-3, the main component of Hydrogen fusion processes) fused, you'd still take out about ¹/₃₂^nd of New York City, and render half of it unsuitable for living.  Fusion creates loads of nuclear waste, generally from the surroundings where the fusion occurs, extreemely dangerous, and practically created the elements with the atomic numbers 90-98 in an enormous Hydrogen fusion bomb blast detonated above the Pacific Ocean.  It is not safe, and impossible to use in smaller devices.  This has been asked before, my answer will always be the same.

um

someone hasn't plaed left 4 dead -_-

Nuclear fusion's waste is far less dangerous than fission's, and stays radioactive for not nearly as long.

It creates a stuff load of Helium (Or Hydrogen, can't remember)

[SWAT One]

Creates Helium, but as to your first statement, it creates lpads of waste, but decomposes quickly, releasing huge amounts of radiation.  It creates dangerous amounts, that creates dangerous effects, but by the time it is safe to observe, it is a much smaller amount, and decomposed to safer levels.

I see what you are saying.

So by the time the reaction is done, most of the waste and radiation would have decomposed?

[Agent C]

Electrolysis is fission I thought, with hydrogen and helium splitting out of a compound?
