MISSION STATEMENT

My mission is to raise awareness of the importance of developing a more efficient, clean energy source to protect the environment. I feel that it is important to bring the research for such solutions into high-school classrooms, labs, and clubs. 

​

The largest climate change driver is the pollution generated by energy production, traditional energy-intensive industries, and the ever-increasing energy demand from newer technologies like AI and data centers. One of the most promising clean energy solutions, and what may someday solve all of humanities energy needs, is nuclear fusion. Although this revolutionary technology will have a massive impact on the world, it remains under-taught and under-researched in schools. The goal of this project is to raise awareness and teach students and educators about fusion by creating a cost-effective, hands on, and accessible classroom teaching aid: 
a 3D printable Fusor.

Currently in testing, the Metal 3D Printed fusor has achieved a vacuum of .0001 mTorr, meeting the conditions necessary to achieve fusion. Current tests are determining leakage rate, maximum pressures, etc.

Printed and machined Metal 3d printed vaccum chamber, and assembles every component based on CAD. 

After I first got the idea to make a fusor, I began sketching
