The fusion reactor ran for about 18 minutes versus the old record of about 7 seconds. The advance was achieved by doubling the input power. Fusion reactors require vastly more power input than output. Fission reactors run for years with no input power and produce no “greenhouse gas.”

While fusion energy production is a lovely idea and will be pursued, fission is now. The main obstacles to fission power are irrational fear and litigation.
