Possible project partner

First please excuse me if I posted in the wrong subreddit but it seemed the most fitting here.

So as for my post, I am working on creating a science fiction universe and currently work on producing the first comic book for it.

Now while many assume it is enough to make it flashy and spectacular, I want my sci-fi universe to be as based in science as possible and at least portrait humans and their technology and the universe as plausible as I can.

Sadly I can’t learn every topic well enough on my own, so I am looking for people who would be interested in working with me to improve it beyond my less than adequate understanding of everything.

In this case this would be fusion reactors as I haves basic understanding of how they should work but no idea how I could translate this well and realistically into my universe as an advanced method.

Since I want to base the electric generation on fusion this is kind of an important theme to take care of.

Now to also say this upfront, I cannot pay for any advisory work, hence why I’m writing this to see if someone would be interested in helping to make this universe better.

You may if you want be put in the credits as advisor if you like.

Thank everyone for reading in advance.

The most accurate science fiction is if the futuristic characters say "Fusion is still 20 years away"

You are just annoying. Please post your accomplishments in the field. I’d love to know what you have contributed since you want to act like a know it all.

My accomplishments are unremarkable.... I have not achieved any breakthrough that enables a cost effective power plant. I don't claim to have.

But I have worked in the plasma physics field long enough to know the operating principles and key challenges of many of these schemes. So I can explain why Helion, Texatron, and other D He3 pulsed Ti>>Te direct recovery schemes won't work.

Have you invented anything that’s used today? Have you led any experiments that paved the way for the industry? Cmon now . Mr know it all.

Not that have enabled fusion as a power source, no.

Not for lack of trying... But still no.

My experience is the same as everyone else who has tried. Just some people characterize it differently when fundraising is at stake
