Not even MICROSECONDS.
NANOSECOND.....................
But it can be converted to another form.

If the sun is able to generate more energy than present within, then why is it not growing in size and/or strength? Maybe it is, and that explains so-called global warming.
Cold fusion will never see the light of day. Too many powerful interests are involved in the energy sector and their plans for us do not involve cheap, safe and abundant energy.
Every star is a gravitational balancing act.
The pressure inside the star from the fusion, is counterbalanced by the gravity of the mass of the star.
All is well, until that balance is no longer equal.........then....>BOOM!<...........
What happened? Did the Law of Conservation of Energy suddenly get repealed? EXTREMELY SKEPTICAL HERE.
Free beer tomorrow.
sheesh...a cupla bean burritos are a good source of nuclear releases. &^)
AND we just need a few trillion dollars in tax dollars to figure it out.
In short, unless I’ve gotten it wrong, they don’t consider that the mass/gravity of the sun kicks off the suns fusion reaction and the energy needed to approximate this here on earth isn’t, for some bizarre reason,taken into account. (Don’t tell your accountant about this reporting technique )

It can be released. The trick is to do so without a big bang.
Which will happen first?
1. US Men’s Soccer Team wins the World Cup
2. Fusion reactors begin to power the electric grid
I’ve heard this practical fusion energy is right around the corner for 50 years. Maybe this latest experiment shows progress but at best practical fusion energy is decades away.
As skeptical as I am of feasible/viable fusion reactor design possibilities....
..I think it’s a safer bet than USA men’s soccer winning the world cup.

1. hands down that’s how far out in time commercial fusion is.
all true. but my statement is still correct.
