The Sun Is a Miasma of Incandescent Plasma

The fusion process of taking hydrogen atoms and fusing them to make a helium atom. In the sun, this process continues because you've got intense heat and the incredible gravitational forces at play. Here on earth, it's we can't really replicate that situation, right? We have to use really powerful magnetic fields to control, contain and create superheated plasma. There are lazers involved. It is awesome.
