Well, this is crazy. The LIFE project at the National Ignition Facility at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has plans to create a mini sun in the lab, one that could create more energy than it takes to create.
那麼，這是瘋狂的。在勞倫斯利弗莫爾國家實驗室的國家點燃設施的LIFE項目已計劃在實驗室建立一個迷你太陽，一個能創造更多能量比創造它時取去的。
Yes, we're talking about fusion here. By focusing 192 huge laser beams at one 2mm ball of frozen hydrogen gas, they hope to create nearly limitless free energy. Oh, and it gets better:
是的我們在這裡談及融合，通過192枝巨大的激光束聚焦在一個 2毫米的冷凍氫氣球，他們希望創造接近無限的免費能源。哦，和它愈來愈好：
In addition, the LIFE engine design can be "charged" with fission fuel. The resulting fission reactions will produce additional energy that can be harvested for electricity production.
此外，LIFE發動機的設計能以裂變燃料“充電”，由此產生的裂變反應將會產生更多的能量，可收成作電力生產。
Moreover, by using depleted uranium or spent nuclear fuel from existing nuclear power plants in the blanket, a LIFE engine will be capable of burning the by-products of the current nuclear fuel cycle. Because the fusion neutrons are produced independently of the fission process, the fission fuel could be used without reprocessing. In this way, LIFE may be able to consume nuclear waste as fuel, mitigate against further nuclear proliferation, and provide long-term sustainability of carbon-free energy. A LIFE engine, via pure fusion or through the combination of fusion and fission, will generate the steady heat required to drive turbines for generating from 1,000 to 2,500 MW of safe, environmentally attractive electric power 24 hours a day for decades.
