Enron Egg parody unveils world’s first ‘at-home’ nuclear reactor and baffles internet
Enron has announced the “Enron Egg”, a micro-nuclear reactor that the newly reformed company claims can power homes for a decade. The only catch is that the parody company’s “revolution in energy”, which comes complete with a highly-produced launch video,

Student just built a working fusion reactor for less than $2,000A university student's bedroom has become an unlikely hub for fusion experimentation, capturing the attention of enthusiasts ...
Researchers are closing in on the potential of nuclear fusion, the process that powers the stars, as a clean and ...
While Stark's mini fusion reactor was small enough to hold in his hand, the real-world CFS version will be closer to the size of a warehouse. No superhero suit included (yet). A cutaway render of ...
A device called the Wendelstein 7-X, or W7-X for short, has made this possible. In a fusion reactor, hydrogen must be superheated into plasma, but that’s a real problem because, as plasma ...
