How CLOSE are we to fusion energy? 😂

3-Second Blueprint (English)

1. Fusion ignition requires meeting the Lawson criterion: a threshold product of plasma density, temperature, and confinement time.
2. Researchers pursue parallel architectures including magnetic plasma confinement in tokamaks and laser-driven inertial confinement.
3. Grid-ready fusion demands scalable engineering net energy gain across the whole plant, beyond isolated scientific plasma breakeven.
