> A safe, clean, inexpensive, 100 Megawatt fusion reactor that fits on a flatbed truck, consumes lithium and sea water, and produces electricity, heat, pure water, and helium.<p>I'm not from Missouri, but ... show me.<p>From another online article (<a href="http://climateerinvest.blogspot.com/2013/02/lockheeds-skunk-works-promises-fusion.html" rel="nofollow">http://climateerinvest.blogspot.com/2013/02/lockheeds-skunk-...</a>):<p>> Lockheed's fusion power plant uses radio energy to heat deuterium gas inside tightly controlled magnetic fields, creating a very high temperature plasma that's much more stable and well confined than you'd find in something like a tokamak ...<p>Note how this device is described -- "fusion power plant uses radio energy to heat deuterium gas". Not "might be able to use radio energy to heat deuterium gas in a future planned device." If this device had moved beyond theory, it would be headlines all over the world. It's a hypothesis, not a device, and certainly not a "fusion power plant". This is hype, and I call shenanigans.<p>In the original video, the real source for this story talks about it in realistic terms -- it's a hypothesis, an idea that might or might not actually work:<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=JAsRFVbcyUY#" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=J...</a>!<p>The project is interesting, but it's not reduced to practice as suggested in the text accounts. This represents more irresponsible science journalism.
