Personnel
gollark: It doesn't get a massive amount of funding, though.
gollark: I don't really know enough about the current state of fusion and the relevant physics to say much about whether it's likely to be practical eventually, though.
gollark: Although preparation and fuel production and stuff ended up taking up waaaay more than you get out, IIRC net-positive if you just count energy input used to heat up the fuel or whatever was achieved a while ago.
gollark: Actually, that was sort of achieved a while ago.
gollark: I'm sure there's ridiculously long-lived chemical waste from stuff which people completely ignore too.
