National Ignition Facility

This is a video from the National Ignition Facility, which houses a group of 192 lasers, all focused on a single point inside a spherical target chamber. It will recreate temperatures found inside stars and nuclear explosions. If we're lucky, it will prove the possibility of nuclear fusion as a virtually limitless source of energy.

The facility has been under construction for 12 years, and was finished yesterday.

Mmmm

(in case you can't wait to get to the store)
