Nobody can predict this, though some people do give opinions. The fact is that no successful way of reliably producing and harnessing fusion on earth has been developed, and scientists are still trying to devise better experiments which involve spending a lot of money and time. Personally I would give it at least 50 years. Hopefully it will be ready within 100 years because the suplies of uranium may be running out by then.
About every 10 years fusion reactor researchers have traditionally predicted that they expect to have it working in about 10 years. It is always "just over the horizon". Also I expect it will be far less "clean" than has usually been predicted (e.g. there will be disposal issues for the radioactive reactor at shutdown just like with fission - maybe smaller problems but still problems).
What else can I help you with?
Why is the cold fusion theory controversial?
The cold fusion theory is controversial because it proposes a way to generate energy by fusing atoms at room temperature, contradicting traditional fusion theory. Many scientists are skeptical of cold fusion due to the lack of consistent, reproducible experimental results and the failure to explain the underlying mechanism adequately. The initial claim of cold fusion in 1989 was met with skepticism and debate in the scientific community, contributing to its controversial status.
Distinguish between the first and second laws of thermodynamics in terms of whether or not exceptions occur?
Neither has any known exceptions. You do have to account for the equivalence of mass and energy though to keep the 1st law consistent, i.e. E=mc² when it comes to nuclear fission and nuclear fusion.
A plastic toggle switch that can represent an on or off status that indicates a parameter setting?
A plastic toggle switch is a physical switch that can be flipped up or down to indicate the on or off status of a parameter setting. It is a simple and intuitive way to visually represent the current status of a particular setting, making it easy for users to understand and interact with the device or system.
Which has a higher rate of respiration heart mitochondria or liver mitochondria?
It depends on the physiological status of the cell and energy demand rather than tissue. The question is incorrect
What is status crystallization?
Status crystallization is a concept in sociology that refers to the phenomenon where individuals experience inconsistencies or confusion in the perception of their social status. This can occur when different aspects of an individual's status, such as occupation, education, and income, do not align or are viewed differently by society. Status crystallization highlights the complexity and nuances of social hierarchies and roles.

Should new Zealand change their anti nuclear status?
No
Is there a comma before status post in the following sentence - She continues to experience neck pain status post anterior cervical decompression and fusion?
A comma would not typically be used. This is not a typical sentence though. It appears to be medical notes, perhaps from a chart or patient file.One possible punctuation is below:"She continues to experience neck pain. Status: post anterior cervical decompression and fusion."

What is the usage Orderial status in making questions?
Ordinal status is asking the respondent to rank their responses. The ranking indicates the importance assigned by the participant.

What does status mean on court records after making a plea?
"Status" means the 'current standing' of the case (i.e.: What is the status of this case right now? - What was the 'status' of this case on such-and-such date? - Etc.) The court periodically holds "status hearings" where the attorneys come together with the judge to review where the cases are in regards to being brought to conclusion.
What do you do to the least of these in your daily interactions and decision-making"?
In your daily interactions and decision-making, treat others with kindness and fairness, regardless of their status or circumstances.
What countries have used a nuclear bomb?
The United States uses more nuclear power than any other country, around 20 percent of the power in the United States is created via nuclear power. Other countries that use nuclear power include France, Russia, and Japan. These countries all create more energy via nuclear power percentage wise, however none create nearly as many total Kilowatt hours as the United States.
Is Gulf Power building a new Nuclear Plant?
The status of new plants can be checked from the NRC website www.nrc.gov. See the link given below.
How were the nuclear reactors removed from the USS Nautilus during her restoration to museum status?
They were shipped off-board to an underground facilty where they were later found and preserved.
Why are nuclear families increasing?
Parsons, a functionalists gave the reasoning behind this. He came up with the functional fit thesis, which states that different family types are better suited for different stages of society. Parsons says that the nuclear family was dominant in industrial society for 2 reasons 1) it is geographically mobile Industrial society requires a workforce that can move about in search of new jobs when they arise around the country, and the nuclear family is therefore the perfect size to move about regularly in search of work 2) it is socially mobile In industrial society, meritocratic values are dominant, this means that status is achieved rather than ascribed, so hard work = high status in a nutshell. Therefore, you can have a family whereby the father is a plumber and the son is a top lawyer, and if the father and son lived together there would be conflict of status. Therefore the nuclear family allows the next generation to not live with their parents during adulthood, which means that conflict of status can be avoided.
