Sure, if anyone can ever get fusion working at all, spamming shit head.

Bottom line; just around the corner as it has been for half a
century now, spamming shit head.

Creating fusion has long been done with H-Bomb .Controlling it in a smaller scale is what my PFM does very effectively.It runs closer to perpetual motion,since it will pulse out fusion energy for 73 years with no outside help.It is  win win TreBert
