On May 17, 2025, the National Ignition Facility (NIF) of the U.S. Department of Energy had reached a new goal in the research on nuclear fusion with inertial confinement. A record experiment was obtained in NIF labs in California. It had allowed to produce 8.60 Megajoules (MJ) of energy from an experimental reactor to nuclear fusion by injecting with lasers only 2.05 Megajoules. A gain of 319%. It had been more than doubled the result of 3.5 MJ …
