"In inertial confinement experiments, the gas (hydrogen isotopes, like in magnetic fusion) is frozen inside pea-sized metal pellets. The pellets are placed in a chamber and then hit with high-powered lasers that compress the gas and heat it up to a few million Kelvin—about 400 million degrees Fahrenheit—creating the conditions for fusion."

What I got out of the article is that we will be able to use mayo to create either fusion weapons or civil fusion electrical power. Will the Brady Foundation now try to ban mayo as a weapon of mass destruction? Just askin'.
