Nuclear Fusion Research


This subject is uprising much outrage and contradiction mostly because of the U.S.'s current economical crisis. According to to the NPR news website. "A group of nations, including the U.S., wants to invest in nuclear fusion as a source of energy. But adopting the process that fuels our sun to create power on Earth won't be easy -- or cheap. On Tuesday, the group called ITER will decide whether to spend another $17 billion on a lengthy experiment".


There are various things I could discuss about those couple of sentences. I could go for and against. I on the other hand will go for both. Well to be on the negative side, Who is ITER to decide how the tax payer's money is spent. The Tax payers are we the people!! I don't know what they stand for.. who are they? Not even a public announcement... Common courtesy really.


Then again at times there is no progression with out a Delay. that referring to money in this case. Science calls for a lot of money to be spent. But one needs to break money to make money... If not we don't advance anywhere. This is why flying cars will always be a dream!! nobody wants to pay for he funds to create them.


Well baby steps i guess, is all we can hope for. Teeny tiny baby steps.
