Wild Card's description:
The research of thermonuclear fusion has advanced to the extent that the thermonuclear fusion is now started to be utilized as a source of energy production, next to the current nuclear power plants, whose energy production is based on thermonuclear fission. In comparison to the fission, thermonuclear fusion is able to produce a considerable bigger amount of energy with no nuclear waste.
