What to do with all this magic?

What a freak. No, I'm not talking about him.

I was referring to 15yo Thiago Olson, who built a nuclear reactor in his basement for $3500.

HOW IT WORKS

Two vacuum pumps suck air out of the central chamber, leaving a near-total vacuum. Loose atoms in here interfere with fusion and lower yield.

The chamber is filled with deuterium and jolted with about 45,000 volts of electricity.

A negatively charged grid of thin steel wires attracts the now-positive particles, sometimes causing them to collide.

Colliding particles fuse to form helium-3. The resulting neutron emission is measured, proving that fusion occurred.
