We went inside Helion, the fusion startup in Everett, Washington that almost never lets journalists in. What we saw was wild: gigantic capacitor banks, miles of cables, and a pulsed fusion machine called Polaris that glows bright pink when it fires. Helion isn’t trying to make steam like most fusion projects. It wants to pull electricity straight from the fusion reaction, recharge its system, and fire again in rapid bursts. Skeptics say it’s hype. Helion says Orion will deliver power in 2028, and Microsoft is already signed up. Who’s right?
