It's a bit like driver less cars. If you believed the hype of just a few years ago they'd be here now but they're not.

But when it does happen it will change everything.
Imagine not worrying about energy costs or the cost to the environment ever again.

The world will look entirely different when Fusion finally comes online.
When I was in high school back in the stone ages they were saying practical fusion energy was 20 years out. It is still 20 to 30 years out. It is really really hard to make it work.

Fusion energy will be a great thing and truly change the world. Right now it still uses more energy than it produces, and it one produces for very brief periods of time.
