But hydrogen bombs use fusion, which take small atoms -- such as hydrogen -- and combine them. The result: a bomb that is a thousands of times more powerful than an atomic bomb.

After waiting for months, the billion dollar company has designed vision for the future of the electric car: a 1000-horsepower single seat racer. Of all the cars that might've come from electric-vehicle startup (and presumed Tesla rival) Faraday Future, a single-seat racecar with 1,000 horsepower may be the most surprising. The company, which is on track to break ground for a billion-dollar factory in North Las Vegas, Nevada, fittingly chose the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show to pull the wraps off the FFZERO1 Concept, a wholly outlandish — but wildly compelling — battery powered hypercar. This isn't the company's first production model, but it is a dazzling showcase of the technology — and the philosophy — that will define Faraday's future offerings.
