A group of bat viruses closely related to MERS-CoV could be capable of spilling over into human populations and potentially causing the next pandemic.

Nuclear fusion, an energy generation method driven by the combination of two hydrogen atoms, has long been sought for its potential as a near-limitless source of energy. In the pursuit of cheap ...

Forward-looking: While the path to practical fusion energy remains long, the recent advances at the National Ignition Facility have emboldened researchers. The facility's ongoing progress is a ...

The world’s only fusion experiment that actually gives back more energy than it takes in is now breaking its own records. According to TechCrunch, the National Ignition Facility (NIF ...

For decades, nuclear fusion has held the promise of clean, limitless energy. However, one persistent challenge has slowed progress: the inability to reliably contain the high-energy particles ...

The discovery of the Camp Hill virus marks the first detection of a henipavirus in Alabama in North America. This event highlights henipaviruses, a group of highly dangerous pathogens known to ...

It seems too good to be true, but UK-based Pulsar Fusion has revealed its new Sunbird self-contained nuclear rocket tug that uses a fusion propulsion engine that could reduce a trip to Mars to ...

Pacific Fusion made a splash in October when it emerged from stealth with a $900 million Series A and a founding team led by a scientist who is most widely known for his work on the Human Genome ...

Fusion energy stands as a beacon of hope in a world beset by rising energy demands, extreme weather and energy security challenges. The same process that powers the sun, fusion would provide ...

Successfully harnessing the power of fusion energy could lead to cleaner and safer energy for all—and contribute substantially to combating the climate crisis. Towards this goal, Type One Energy ...

General Fusion announced on Tuesday that it had successfully created plasma, a superheated fourth state of matter required for fusion, inside a prototype reactor. The milestone marks the beginning ...

It’s also distantly related to the measles virus. The first known henipavirus, Hendra virus, was identified in Australia in 1994. There have been just seven cases of humans getting infected ...
