Nukes Next Door!
"Mom, I wanna build a new experiment in the basement."
"Oh jeez not again," sighed the mother. "ok, go ahead - but don't break anything this time."
"Thanks mom!"
* 2 years later *
Mom walks down the steps to the basement," what did you build this time son?"
The boy proudly announces to his mother,"...it's a nuclear fusion reactor!"
Mom faints.

In the basement of his parents' Oakland Township home, tucked away in an area most aren't privy to see, Thiago, a clean-cut 17-year-old with a 3.75 grade point average, is exhausting his love of physics on a project that has taken him more than two years and 1,000 hours to research and build -- a large, intricate machine that , on a small scale, creates nuclear fusion. Full story can be found here!
Factoid: outside of the government, he is the 18th person to have created fusion on his own! :eek7
