"A widespread belief among physicists nowadays is that modern science
requires squadrons of scientists and wildly expensive equipment.
Craig Wallace and Philo T. Farnsworth are putting the lie to all that.

nuclear fusion reactor, based on the plans of Utah's own Philo
Farnsworth, the inventor of television."
