I’ve long had a broad range of interests in numerous sciences, technologies and engineering areas that provides me with a perspective that many specialists lack. I’m also a realist regarding the Anthropogenic Climate Disruption (ACD) trend now occurring.
@skirsner.bsky.social - Thanks for your article on CFS’s efforts to create a fusion energy power plant. The first efforts began in the 1950s. Standard practice has been to claim that the hydrogen fuel is almost limitless. Never mentioned is the fact that commercial tritium costs ~ $30,000 USD/gram.

@cfs.energy - CFS is highly unlikely to achieve the holy grail quest that has been pursued since the 1950s. Typically, numerous key evaluation details are omitted in presentations. One is that at full power SPARC’s fusion pulses are expected to last for 10-seconds followed by a 4-hour recovery time.

I assume that many of the investors, cited by CFS, derived their ‘independent critical analysis’ from consulting contractors filled with nuclear fusion energy fans.
