(Phys.org) —What a week for physics—a team of researchers has found evidence that suggests that the water in our solar system predates the Sun—they claim it came from interstellar space even before the formation of our sun. Closer to home and over at Sandia National Laboratory, researchers have produced a "significant" amount of fusion neutrons using a magnetized fusion technique. The process still doesn't achieve the break-even point, but it does demonstrate the validity of their approach.
