Your understanding is wrong. The big problem is fuel. He3 is needed to make fusion work. It’s on the moon. It would make more sense to acquire the fuel first, then figure out how to do it. The reason they don’t acquire the needed fuel? It’s on the moon.

This looks to be one of several ways to make H3. I’ve heard the fusion reactor companies say that they can make H3 from seawater. Its all expensive of course.

It is rare in nature and not immediately available for use in potential power plants. However, there is a process to produce tritium. For example, exposing the more common element lithium to energetic neutrons can generate tritium through a low-energy nuclear fission reaction.
