Properly proved. Has structure, has flavour, has a point.
Summary
Marathon Fusion has developed a scalable method for transmuting gold using fusion reactors, addressing the age-old challenge of alchemy. The process involves utilizing high-energy neutrons in deuterium-tritium fusion to drive a multiplication reaction on mercury-198, resulting in the production of mercury-197.
Key quotes
· 2 pulledUnlike previous attempts, our method is massively scalable, pragmatically achievable, and economically irresistible.
Making use of those neutrons to drive a multiplication reaction on mercury-198, our approach produces mercury-197.
