I have always wondered if the problem with Fusion Hot or otherwise isn’t hot or cold, it is gravity.

Even these magnetic confinement hot fusion schemes work better in space, that is once you haul all that stuff up there.

But (the big BUT) if we could get it hauled up there the power would be immense and it can be beamed back to earth and this would work in short order.

Turns Fusion into more a logistics Problem rather than a pure technological problem.

That pretty much describes the Sun doesn't it (the confinement being gravitational)?
