The Focus Fusion crowdfunding effort for the Lawrenceville Plasma Physics project has launched.
Scientists at LPP Fusion, led by Chief Scientist Eric Lerner, are just one step away from this groundbreaking technology and we need your help for the final push.
With only 1/1000th the budget of the huge government funded projects, they are closer to affordable, unlimited, and ultra-clean energy than anyone else in the world.
They need to raise $200,000 to fund the purchase of new electrodes for the final phase of research, to prove that Focus Fusion works.
They have heated the fusion fuel up to 1.8 billion degrees—200 times hotter than the center of the sun, and confined it in a tiny plasmoid for 10 billionths of second. This is not a long time, but it is all they need. The third condition, which they still have not achieved, is enough density so the fuel will burn up during the confinement time. They have to get 10,000 times more density—a lot, but they know how to do this. That is what they are planning to do in the coming year to 18 months—if they have the financial resources they need.
Focus Fusion works by driving over a million amps of current across a pair of cylindrical electrodes, creating a dense plasma where fusion reactions occur.
