Re: Overlooked NIF fusion pathway comment about fusion yield

An overlooked comment from the announcement at 28:50

"It's possible with a laser system at scale to generate hundreds of megajoules of yield so there is a pathway to a target that produces enough yield."

This is more significant comment in my opinion than the fact lasers can be much more efficient.
