__Nuclear Fusion Reactors- by katie F__
A nuclear fusion reactor is the process that works by light atoms, like hydrogen, at very high tempatures and presures to make heavier ones. Releasing tremendous amount of energy. The energy released is used as heat to make steam to generate electricity. The steam drives a turbine. Nuclear power makes electricty that power alot of homes around the world. The energy released from continuous fission of the atoms is harnessed as heat in gas or water. Nuclear Fusion is a device in which nuclear chain reactions are initated controlled and sustain at a steady rate where the chain reaction occus in a split second. The Fuel isotopes are essentially unlimited.

__Scientists face challenges of Nuclear Fusion:__
When it comes to any to any field of scientific study their are always challendes to face. For the field of nuclear fusion, scientists face problems like high costs.In econimics their is a saying that their are no free lunches. Scientist need funding in order to continue their reasurch. To test out dirrerent formulas. Without funding scientist can't test out better ways to used the nuclear fusion. Or do model runs. Efforts to controled the fusion process and harness it to porduce power has been study in the United States for at least 40 years.

__Pros of Nuclear Fusion:__
Safety Feature, Fusion is not a continious chain reaction, the process can be stopped at any time.

Realibilty, Nuclear Fusion would be a inexhaustible energy supply that could eliminated most of the world's dependence on other fuels.

Little polution, Nuclear Fusion can prevent pollution compleatly if worked on enough to help the enviroment in the long run.

__Cons of Nuclear Fusion:__
Expensive Meltdowns Radiation Waste dipsal

__Conclusion:__
The hope for fusion power is to make it unlimited, radiation free and to get energy that goes on forever. I think Nuclear Fusion is a viable energy source for the futher because the process to take hydrogen isotopes and change it to energy, that is unlimited is in the near futher if researchers keep improving and have finances to fun the researchers.
