What Is Texatron?
American Fusion’s Texatron Fusion Engine is the company’s proprietary compact pulsed aneutronic fusion platform, built to provide clean, transportable, and scalable power without producing long-lived radioactive waste.

The company said last week that it is reviewing engineering and diagnostic data from the initial phase of Texatron testing and expects to share further technical updates. It is also planning to publish a technical summary of the initial testing and release a behind-the-scenes video showcasing the work conducted at Texas Tech University.
