Why do you have a picture of a nuclear bomb explosion for a NIF inertial confinement fusion ractor? Everyone seems to think that nuclear reactors will cause nuclear explosions when something goes wrong, when in fact the conditions for a nuclear bomb are nowhere near similar AT ALL to the mechanisms of nuclear reactors

@infinion you need to hit up Wikipedia my friend for a review. a fusion and reactor and fission reactor are NOTHING alike (well I should not say nothing but in a way they are opposites). a fusion reactor is indeed in many ways like an atom bomb exploding except in a closed magnetic sealed and controlled reaction. "nowhere near similar AT ALL to the mechanisms of nuclear reactors" yes this is correct. FISSION REACTORS! but fusion is a different ball game completely.
and (fyi we have fusion bombs and fission bombs).

the first a-bomb was fission
the H-bomb is a fussion bomb.
what the sun does is fussion
what current reactors do are fission
what we are trying to create is fussion reactors.

AND just fyi what happens in a fission bomb and a fission nuclear reactor is the EXACT same in the fact that fission "is a process where a large atomic nucleus (such as uranium) is split into two smaller particles." if it happens over the course of 2 million years or 2 milli seconds deternisns the amount of energy released at any given moment.
