How To Build A Dyson Sphere explores nuclear fusion, with the fusion aficionado, Roger Jaspers.
Nuclear fusion is the process of extracting energy out of merging atoms together, and making new atoms. It is the reaction that occurs at the core of the sun, and what makes the sun shine. And we are trying to do exactly that, in a machine, on Earth.
In this episode, we understand the process of fusion in a fusion reactor (aka Tokamak), the engineering challenges involved, reasons for the alternatives to fusion by magnetic confinement being unlikely to be feasible, ITER (humanity's biggest science experiment), and why it is taking so long to make fusion a success.
We also get up close and personal with Roger, and explore scientific ideas that he likes, and those that he is uncomfortable with.
