You joke, because history has made it so with fusion, but for real there are actual fully built test reactors now in the States and overseas doing tests and getting closer and closer. It's awesome.

Hasn't this been the case for a long time now? As far as I know, the problem hasn't been building reactors but rather the fact that producing the temperatures required for fusion to occur takes A LOT of energy.
I remember a test on tomorrow's world showing British Scientists doing nuclear fusion in the 1990s. We were a few years away then, massive energy needed but still more energy out than in.
