Tom Hanks’ ‘Finch’ includes a cameo from TAE Technologies
TAE Technologies is the world’s largest private fusion energy company. But in Tom Hanks’ new sci-fi drama “Finch,” TAE is transformed into a hub of robotics innovation – all thanks to a bit of movie magic.
							
					
															TAE Technologies Partners with Japan’s Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) for Fusion Fuel Research
TAE Technologies, the world’s largest private fusion energy company, today announced a landmark partnership with Japan’s National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) that enables the two organizations to test the effects of hydrogen-boron (p-B11) fusion reactions in the NIFS Large Helical Device (LHD). The results of this research have the potential to unlock a new milestone in TAE’s mission to develop commercial fusion power with p-B11, the cleanest and most affordable fuel for fusion cycles.
