The Fusion Technology That Was Shut Down

Magnetic mirror fusion once demonstrated promising results, including efficient particle confinement and direct energy conversion, before large-scale programs were abruptly shut down. Facilities capable of testing these systems were already built, and experimental data showed performance that challenged the prevailing direction of fusion research. Despite this, funding and institutional support shifted away from magnetic mirrors in favor of less efficient approaches. The focus here is on what was achieved, why these systems showed real potential, and how a viable fusion pathway was abandoned before it could be fully developed.
