Fusion power as the source of energy on Earth has been the dream of mankind ever since the principles were understood. ITER, the Latin word for “the way”, is the world’s largest Fusion device presently under construction in Cadarache, France. Supported by the People’s Republic of China, the European Atomic Energy Community, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the Russian Federation, and the United States of America, an international organization was founded after the signature of the Joint ITER Agreement in October of 2006. The goal is to build a Fusion reactor with a power amplification of 10, a total fusion power of 500 MW or more operating at extended burn times of 400-3000 seconds, with Deuterium and Tritium as its basic fuel. Following a short introduction into fusion science principles, the history of thermo nuclear fusion will be covered. Finally more recent construction projects around the world, their latest achievements and the path to ITER will be described. Technological and scientific challenges of ITER together with their foreseen solutions will be then presented in more detail

Mark Suppes, 'Fusioneer', Part1 Building a homemade nuclear reactor in NYC

Mark Suppes is an Amateur "fusioneer," who's building his own fusion reactor in a garage near his Brooklyn, N.Y., home.

For him, fusion research is more than just a hobby. It's his chance to change the world. Although he has a full-time job and works on it when he can, he believes his research can make a difference in people's lives.

He has no formal physics training and says he's self-educated, largely through Wikipedia. He became interested in the topic when he saw a Google Tech Talk called, "Should Google Go Nuclear," presented by renowned nuclear physicist Robert W. Bussard. Now he's been at it for about 10 years.
