Back in 2002 Professor Rusi Taleyarkhan - who was then based in the United States' Oak Ridge National Laboratory - claimed that he had discovered a way of re-creating natural Nuclear Fusion here on earth, with a device called the 'star in the jar'. For decades scientists have been trying to achieve this because, unlike conventional nuclear power, nuclear fusion would have no waste and the fuel required is hydrogen, something our world is covered in, in the form of water. This would truly be a big step for mankind if it were true, but Taleyarkhan's detractors shot holes in his science from the word go, and this film does the same.
