ArcCorp may have made fusion engines in the 2800s, but we may not have to wait that long. This should be bigger news all over the place, but on December 5, 2022, we achieved scientific energy breakeven with nuclear fusion. That is, we created a fusion reaction that produced more energy than was put into it. Now, it will take decades or longer to get this into practical use, but this is on par with the Wright Brother's first flight. Proof that a thing can be done. The verse isn't as far off as we thought (hey, I can dream). Welcome to a new era! https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/scientists-achieve-breakthrough-nuclear-fusion
