Nuclear fusion 'put to the test'

...Nuclear fusion is nature's atomic power .


	Boinc projects

	Astronomers say they have been stunned by the amount of energy released in a star explosion on the far side of our galaxy, 50,000 light-years away. Large crater on Titan The Cassini spacecraft's latest flyby of Titan has produced a radar image of a 440km-wide (273 miles) crater. Such features are rare on the Saturnian satellite as its surface, unlike many in the Solar System, is being reshaped.


	Space Links

	Google http://www.google.com/ Earth and Moon Viewer This stunning website returns a computer-enhanced image of Earth, depicting day and night simultaneously. Fascinating stuff, as you can watch the shadow of darkness creep across every world region. Antimatter Within seconds of its birth, the Universe should have destroyed itself in a battle between matter and its alter-ego - antimatter. Tiny but deadly, these particles could have halted the Universe before it had even begun. Discover how we survived to tell the tale.

	Black Holes

	Invisible and deadly, black holes are the 'hungry monsters' of the Universe. But how can we be sure that they exist? And are they really so bad? Delve into the world of black holes Future space flight Voyager 1 is our most travelled spacecraft to date, clocking up a mammoth 12 billion km during its incredible journey to the edge of our Solar System. However, this long-haul trip has taken over 30 years to complete. What's more, even at speeds of over 35,000 mph, Voyager will take a further 20,000 years to reach the middle of the Oort Cloud, the hazy swarm of comets that surrounds the Solar System. Proxima Centauri, our nearest star, is twice this distance again. Clearly, if we want to explore further than our celestial doorstep, we must find new modes of space travel. From the feasible to the fantastic, here is a run-down of top transport options...
