Magnetically Confinement Fusion

Magnetic confinement fusion is a process that aims to harness energy by mimicking the sun's power generation. It involves heating a gas, or plasma, to extremely high temperatures so that atoms can fuse together, releasing energy. To keep the hot plasma stable and prevent it from touching the reactor walls, powerful magnetic fields are used. This technique is being researched as a potential source of clean and virtually limitless energy, as it produces minimal waste and doesn’t rely on fossil fuels. Projects like ITER aim to demonstrate its feasibility for future energy needs.
