Tech Nation - Fusion Confusion
DIR Back to Yesterday's Tomorrow Index
08/03/1993 - Fusion Confusion
The "confusion about fusion" is examined. Dr. Moira Gunn asks Dr.
Norman Rostoker, Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of
California, Irvine, to describe the various approaches which are being
researched to achieve nuclear fusion, as well as the government
funding situation. Dr. Rostoker represents a national coalition of
Alternate Fusion Researchers and discusses the current situation
vis-a-vis government funding for research.
Moira also speaks with one of these researchers, Dr. Bodan Maglich,
President of Advanced Research Corporation, on his aneutronic fusion
technology which uses Helium-3 as fuel in a collider environment and
the success which he has had.
Finally, Moira discusses the implications of this technology from an
environmental standpoint with Harry Hamlin. With a long-standing
record on environmental issues, the actor Hamlin discusses the wide-
ranging support for this technology, the global implications of using
this technology, and how it could change our lives.
