Therefore, nuclear fusion seems to be the better choice. Second, the potential amount of energy produced by fusion can greatly outweigh the fission. Initially, there are some disadvantages to fusion. The time and money required to develop technology needed to initiate, contain, and sustain a profitable fusion reaction is costly, but the development is still in its early stages and will continue to advance through the next century...

Fission readily creates a chain reaction which must be slowed through use of a moderator to avoid core meltdown, while fusion can only be accomplished at temperatures similar to the centre of stars, about 100 million degrees celsius. The components used in fusion exist in the form of plasma where atoms are divided into electrons and nuclei...

nuclear fusion Tritium does not occur naturally but it can be extracted from lithium, which is plentiful in the earths crust. Creating nuclear fusion is safe too, the amount of plasma being used at one time is very small, and the conditions require for fusion to occur are difficult to attain...	2 / 377
nuclear fusion vs fision The components used in fusion exist in the form of plasma where atoms are divided into electrons and nuclei. No solid material known to man can withstand temperatures necessary for nuclear fusion, but several methods of containment are being researched...	2 / 522
Fusion: Our Future's Energy? This is a serious environmental concern. Fusion is different. It is a process that combines two nuclei into one, releasing an amount of energy that is far greater than that of fission...	4 / 975
