What were you doing at 12 years old? Most kids were busy with homework… but Jackson Oswalt was building nuclear fusion
Growing up in Memphis, Tennessee, Jackson was inspired after watching a TED Talk by Taylor Wilson Instead of just dreaming, he decided to break his record.
At just 10, he began working on a fusor—a device that forces atoms to fuse using high voltage inside a vacuum chamber Using parts he bought online, he built everything from scratch, including a chamber filled with deuterium gas
For a year, nothing worked Failures, adjustments, more failures… but he didn’t stop. Then, just hours before turning 13 in 2018, he finally succeeded
He confirmed it by detecting neutrons—the key proof of fusion—and shared his results on Fusor.net Experts reviewed and accepted his work. Soon after, Guinness World Records recognized him as the youngest person ever to achieve nuclear fusion
Even the FBI showed up to check radiation levels —everything was safe.
His journey proves one thing: big innovation can start from a bedroom… with curiosity and persistenceWhat were you doing at 12 years old?
