Nuclear fusion has been the holy grail of energy for many decades now. It’s the process that drives stars, the ultimate source of energy in the universe. The possibility that fusion might be achievable on Earth as an energy source has driven scientists to the edge of reason for almost a century. 

As part of Second Chance Cinema at the NI Science Festival, Brendan Dromey from the Centre for Plasma Physics at Queen’s University Belfast will introduce this fascinating documentary and take part in a Q+A following the showing.
