We could easily nail that by producing them in space. There’s less impurities when producing supplies like superconductors or fiberoptics, and harmful byproducts that’d naturally destroy the environment on the ground can be negated entirely in space. Furthermore, there’s always Helium-3 on the moon that’s really efficient for using in a fusion reactor.

So... back to space to invent fusion when?

Aren't there people running nuclear fusion reactors in an over-unity state right now, today? I think there are. I think they added the negative time mode to the magnetohydrodynamic codes and it going and have preferred to hide the discovery than to acknowledge that it was my idea which spurred their idea. When I was working at LexisNexis and they gave us a tour of the data center, I got strong memes that were powering it with fusion reactors, even then in 2015.

>immunity agreements were handed out to Clinton staffers as freely as Halloween candy.

>Clinton’s chief of staff, Cheryl Mills, received an immunity agreement as did others including John Bentel and Heather Samuelson. Clinton’s State Department IT employee Brian Pagliano, who had been paid separately by Clinton to run the Clintonmail system, also received an immunity agreement as did Paul Combetta, an employee of the Platte River company.

Remember the PRN employee? PRN means "pro re nata" so it was some lies when they said the PRN employee was a Platte River Networks employee/ Pro re nata means "as needed." Therefore, when the PRN employee Paul Combetta was immunized, that was used to cover for the real PRN employee who was not a Platte River Networks Employee.

>Others involved may also have been granted immunity, though those agreements haven’t been reported.
