What if there was a way to produce nearly limitless, completely clean energy? And, to make this premise even better, what if it wasn’t the plot of a sci-fi horror flick where our good intentions go horribly wrong and we all end up getting eviscerated?

According to a report from CNN, scientists in the United Kingdom announced that they were able to successfully generate and sustain nuclear fusion for more than double the previous record. That’s a pretty big deal!
