TL;DR Summary

Scientists near Oxford have achieved a nuclear fusion energy record using the Joint European Torus (JET), sustaining 69 megajoules of fusion energy for five seconds with just 0.2 milligrams of fuel. This brings the clean energy source a step closer to reality, potentially offering a limitless, carbon-free energy solution. While the achievement is promising, commercializing fusion energy still faces significant challenges and may not be ready in time to address the climate crisis.
