Oracle Will Reportedly Spend $1 Billion a Year on a Gas-Powered Data Center

Oracle is going all-in on its AI-focused cloud business, pouring billions into building massive new data centers. One site under construction in West Texas will reportedly cost the company around $1 billion just to keep the lights on.

Scientists Say They've Figured Out a Way to Turn Nuclear Waste Into a Powerful Fuel

Scientists say they've developed a way to salvage nuclear waste from fission reactors — and turn it into a potent fuel for fusion reactors instead. As Gizmodo reports, it's an exciting prospect that could give fusion — which has remained elusive despite decades of research, though many scientists believe it could mature into a viable grid-scale power source — a chance of one day becoming a viable source of clean and safe energy. Researchers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory have been scour

Scientists Built a Beer-Fridge-Sized Reactor That Brings Fusion Closer

Fusion is always 10 years away, it seems. To expedite development, some scientists have turned to the prospect of cold fusion—a hypothetical technology that seeks to achieve fusion at room temperature with simpler machines. Needless to say, no one has achieved this vaunted goal, but a team of chemists believes they’re getting closer. A paper published today in Nature introduces Thunderbird: a particle accelerator roughly the size of a beer fridge. The bench-top reactor operates on plasma scienc

Scientists Find Evidence That You're a Hypocrite Who's Causing More Than Your Share of Climate Change

When it comes to personal contributions to climate change, most Americans seem to have no clue how damaging some of their individual actions can be. Folks who happily recycle and switch to more energy-efficient appliances, per a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences Nexus journal, likely have a far larger carbon footprint than they realize. When it comes to personal behavioral changes to mitigate climate change, not all interventions are created equal. A
