LONDON, UK – First Light Fusion achieved the stunning reaction using a unique method at its laboratory in Kidlington. The projectile method is reportedly an easier and more efficient technique than other existing approaches to develop what has been referred to develop a fusion reaction.

Usually, complex and expensive lasers or magnets are used to generate or maintain the conditions for fusion.

Fusion power can generate electricity by using heat from nuclear fusion reactions, the same process used by stars, leading it to be dubbed a Holy Grail energy source.

FLF’s technique compresses fuel inside a target using what is known as a projectile traveling at rapid speeds.

This managed to create a fusion reaction at a record rate of progress.

The company announced on Twitter: “We are delighted to announce that we have achieved fusion – a world-first with our unique new target technology.”
