Hello everybody!

Post by Sam Spencer »

Hello,

My name is Sam Spencer and I am a junior at High Point University in North Carolina. I originally come from New Jersey and I transferred to my current school from Purdue. I am a math major, possibly looking to get a masters in engineering, but I feel like I haven’t learned any practical skills in my current major. I had heard about desktop fusion reactors awhile ago and looked into it and thought it looked incredibly awesome but might be a bit much to take on at the time. Now, however, I feel is the perfect time. I’m looking for some practical experience and a big project to work on, and what could be cooler than building a star in a jar, right? I have reached out to some physics professors and they think I may be able to turn it into an independent study. If that is the case I may want to beef up my reactor a bit so it’s a little beyond the high school sciencefair level and worthy of research paper. Although, with my lack of experience, the basic reactor mentioned in the introductory literature may be challenge enough. I’m sure I’ll figure it out as I go. I’ll definitely need a lot of help and suggestions as I make my way. I look forward to using you all as a resource and hopefully being able to give back after I’ve made some progress of my own.
