Nuno Loureiro was assassinated yesterday He was a professor + the director of MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center > 47 years old > Studied nuclear fusion (= energy source of the Sun + stars) for 10 years at MIT > His award-winning work focused on creating a virtually limitless, clean energy source on Earth - one that doesn’t produce carbon or radioactive waste (usual biproduct of fission reactors) > His research was essentially a threat to companies in the energy sector (fossil fuels, wind, solar, etc) > Nuno was vital to the development of fusion nuclear power plants, without him the path ahead is less clear + his death will set back the entire field Nuno is not the first MIT fusion scientist to be brutally murdered, in 2004 Eugene Mallove was also shot in his home I hope this opens eyes – there is an agenda at play
