The conditions for nuclear fusion are high temperatures and high pressure.The high temperature gives the atoms enough energy to overcome the electrical repulsion between the protons.
Pressure squeezes the hydrogen atoms together. They must be within 1x10
-15meters of each other to fuse.
With current technology, we can only achieve the temperatures and pressures necessary to make deuterium-tritium fusion possible.
