So... we're 20 years away from the first commercial fusion plant.

Am I doing this right?

No.

They can be a hundred years in the future and research would still be valuable.

I know. And all respect for the researchers who pour their lives into this.

It's the media that I was (gently) lampooning; every time news like this comes out, news people get excited.
