How to create a fusion reaction in a laboratory

In the 1950s, scientists theorized that we could achieve fusion on Earth by creating a very dense plasma, spinning the atomic nuclei and electrons rapidly to create a fusion reaction./nOne way to achieve this is through inertial confinement, where you create a small pellet of the material you're trying to fuse and compress it quickly with energy./nMagnetic confinement is another way to achieve fusion, by using a magnetic field to create a hot plasma and get it to spin or move.
