Taylor Wilson gelooft dat kernfusie een oplossing is voor onze toekomstige energienoden, en dat kinderen de wereld kunnen veranderen. Hij weet van beide dingen één en ander af. Toen hij 14 was, bouwde hij een werkende fusiereactor in de garage van zijn ouders. Hij is nu 17 en verovert prompt het TED-podium met (de korte versie van) zijn verhaal.

At 14, Taylor Wilson became the youngest person to achieve fusion -- with a reactor born in his garage. Now he wants to save our seaports from nuclear terror. Full bio »
