We sit down with Devon Battaglia, Senior Manager of Physics Operations at Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS), and Jacopo Buongiorno, Professor of Nuclear Science and Engineering at MIT and a member of the United States National Academy of Engineering, to talk about advancements in nuclear fission and fusion and the impact nuclear power can have on our future.
