For 70 years, nuclear fusion has been 20 years away.


It's not anymore.
Helion's Polaris prototype just hit 150 million degrees Celsius, the highest plasma temperature ever recorded by a private company.
The threshold for a commercially viable fusion machine is 100 million degrees. They're 50% past it.
Commonwealth Fusion Systems sustained a reaction at 100 million degrees for 8.2 seconds. That's a 340% improvement over last year. Their reactor switches on in Cambridge in 2027.
Helion is already building its commercial plant in Washington state. Signed contract to sell electricity to Microsoft by 2028.
Power has always been the real power.
