Comprehensively, Nuclear fusion is the process by which atomic nuclei combine to release energy, is the same phenomenon that powers the sun. Unlike its destructive counterpart, nuclear fission, which involves splitting atoms and is associated with radioactive waste and safety concerns, nuclear fusion harnesses the power of the universe's most fundamental force with the least amount of risk. One of the most compelling reasons for pursuing nuclear fusion is its energy yield.
