Fusion is the energy source of the sun and stars. In fusion, two light nuclei, such as hydrogen combine into one new nucleus such as helium and release enormous energy in the process. On earth, fusion has the potential to be an abundant and attractive source of energy for the future. The Sun has been radiating an enormous amount of energy at the present rate for nearly 5 billion years and will continue radiating at that rate for about 5 billion years more. Only a small part of solar energy reaches the outer layer of the earth’s atmosphere. Nearly half of it is absorbed while passing through the atmosphere and the rest reaches the earth’s surface.
