MIT PSFC (Plasma Science and Fusion Center)

MIT's Plasma Science and Fusion Center (PSFC) is a research facility focused on developing nuclear fusion energy, which aims to replicate the sun’s power on Earth. Fusion involves fusing atomic nuclei to release huge amounts of energy, offering a potential clean and abundant power source. The PSFC designs and tests advanced plasma devices, like tokamaks, to study how to sustain and control fusion reactions. Their work contributes to understanding plasma physics, fostering innovation in energy technology, and bringing us closer to practical fusion power as a future energy solution.
