This young lad got an interest in nuclear power when he was just 8 years old. And while building a nuclear reactor wasn't feasible for him, he did manage to get engaged with a project incubator program in Texas.
And built a working fusion reactor!
There's still some validation and testing required, and it remains to be seen if it could be viable at scale.
But, wow. Curiosity got him a long way!
And what have I done with my life?!
And meanwhile, in Britain, there’s a $266 (USD) retrofit of a coal power plant into a fusion reactor. Which is impressive in its own right. But definitely a little pricey.
