Too early to adopt
- Why
- A credible, peer-reviewed paper design plus a real licensing application is genuine seriousness, but readiness is gated on physics that no stellarator has yet demonstrated. There is nothing to 'adopt' for years; value is in monitoring, not engagement.
- Next
- Track as a long-horizon watch item; revisit when Infinity One subscale machine produces first plasma / first neutron data (commissioning targeted 2029) — that is the first falsifiable physics milestone. Near-term, watch the NRC byproduct-material licensing track (app filed Jan 30 2026).
