View source for Laser Inertial Fusion Energy

LIFE, short for Laser Inertial Fusion Energy, was a fusion energy effort run at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory between 2008 and 2013. LIFE aimed to develop the technologies necessary to convert the laser-driven inertial confinement fusion concept into a practical commercial power plant. The LIFE program was criticized through its development for being based on physics that had not yet been demonstrated. With the problem of ignition unsolved, the LIFE project was canceled in 2013.

NIF failed in this goal, with fusion performance that was well below ignition levels and differing considerably from predictions.
