1. Acquire 100 tons of uranium ore, rare earth metals, or gold

2. Bask it at 100°F (38°C) to cook.

3. Enrich the uranium ore with carbon

4. Add 20 million years worth of cometary impacts to the mix

5. Cook it to a super-condensed, fusion-fueled omelette.

6. Be cool

No need to study chemistry, but these six steps are exactly what you do with a nuclear fusion fuel cycle!

Unfortunately, using nuclear fission (the process where atoms fuse together) for energy generation is a very old idea. We're only 25
