The nuclear burn is almost as hot as the scientific burn! Someone just murdered fusion research with a single caption. While fusion promises unlimited clean energy "any day now" (for the last 70 years), fission has been reliably splitting atoms and generating electricity since the 1950s. It's the scientific equivalent of comparing your friend's ambitious startup idea to your boring but profitable day job. Sure, fusion doesn't create radioactive waste, but at least fission actually, you know... works. Fusion researchers are still in the "please give us another billion dollars, we're this close" phase of development.
