In this special Science on Saturday lecture for Fusion Energy Week 2024, learn about the visionary scientist Lyman Spitzer, Jr. In 1946, Spitzer proposed ideas that helped lead to the Hubble Space Telescope. In 1951, he conceived of an innovative approach to fusion energy and founded what became the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), where we continue to tackle the world’s toughest science and technology challenges using plasma, the fourth state of matter.
Greg Hammett, principal research physicist in computational science at PPPL, traces PPPL's path from 1951 when magnetic fusion research began at Princeton University under the code name “Project Matterhorn” to today.
