Universe Today Podcast · Mar 30, 2023 · 42m

In this interview, I'm talking with Theresa Benyo and Lawrence Forsley from NASA. They are authors of a Lattice Confinement Fusion Reactor that got a NIAC award this year. A reactor like this could help us melt through the ice on Europa and Enceladus and have other interesting applications in space missions. The extended version also includes additional questions from Matt Williams:https://youtu.be/decKMi2FBxk🦄 Support us on Patreon:https://patreon.com/universetoday👉 More about the NIAC project; https://www.nasa.gov/directorates/spacetech/niac/2023/Accessing_Icy_World_Oceans/00:00 Intro02:30…
