📚 Lecture: “Fusion Energy: Harnessing the Power of the Stars on Earth”

🎤 Speaker: Physicist & Nuclear Engineer, Max Monange

What if the next great leap in human civilization isn’t digital, but nuclear? In this eye-opening lecture, Max Monange explores fusion energy—the very process that powers the sun—as a cornerstone for a new era of progress.

We’ll break down the essentials of nuclear physics, examine the current state of fusion research, and discover how harnessing stellar power on Earth could lead to clean, limitless energy for generations. From scientific breakthroughs to transformative societal impacts, Max will illustrate why fusion is not merely science fiction but a pivotal energy revolution that’s finally within reach after over 70 years of research.

Max Monange is a physicist turned nuclear engineer, leading the U.S. arm of EX-Fusion, Japan’s first private laser fusion company. With degrees from UC Berkeley and King’s College London, Max is passionate about making complex nuclear research accessible and understandable to the public.

Don’t miss this chance to learn about the energy of the future!
