Nuclear Fusion-Fission Hybrid Could Destroy Nuclear Waste

Yep, and they should just remove Fission from the equation altogether. An accident resulted recently in the finding that simple radio waves can mitigate the fusion reaction from hitting the containment wall (who would have known? They have been trying to use magnetics for this for ages) and thus destroying its containment facility. Fusion doesn't have the waste of fission since its byproduct is helium so it is the future.

To further clarify - The fission fusion works because the fusion is not self sustaining - it requires the power from the fission side to maintain the fusion side and the fusion side then eats the waste from the fission side. Removing the fission from the loop fixes all problems. Until now, that was not possible.
