La energ\u00eda del Sol, as\u00ed como la de todas las dem\u00e1s estrellas, proviene de una reacci\u00f3n nuclear denominada fusi\u00f3n nuclear. Podr\u00edamos decir que investigar la fusi\u00f3n en la Tierra es, literalmente, intentar \"embotellar una estrella\" para ponerla a nuestro servicio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Para entenderla, es \u00fatil compararla con la fisi\u00f3n nuclear<\/strong>, que es la tecnolog\u00eda que utilizan las centrales nucleares actuales. Mientras que la fisi\u00f3n implica \"fracturar\" \u00e1tomos muy pesados para liberar energ\u00eda, la fusi\u00f3n es el proceso inverso: consiste en unir dos n\u00facleos at\u00f3micos muy ligeros<\/strong> para formar un solo n\u00facleo m\u00e1s pesado. En este proceso de uni\u00f3n se libera una cantidad gigantesca de energ\u00eda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El \"Santo Grial\" de la energ\u00eda<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Las reacciones de fusi\u00f3n producen una cantidad de energ\u00eda extraordinariamente elevada (unas cuatro veces superior a la de la fisi\u00f3n). Por ello, cient\u00edficos de todo el mundo trabajan para replicar esta reacci\u00f3n de forma controlada en la Tierra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

De lograrse, la fusi\u00f3n se convertir\u00e1 en la base de los reactores del futuro, capaces de proporcionar una cantidad pr\u00e1cticamente ilimitada de energ\u00eda limpia (sin gases de efecto invernadero), segura y asequible para satisfacer la demanda energ\u00e9tica mundial. Un verdadero punto de inflexi\u00f3n para el futuro de nuestro planeta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
