Did you see this story? Apparently it has funding from a variety of international sources.

Take from this what you will. The project is based in Germany and includes international scientists. I wonder how much sleep they get?

I know it seems impossible, but isn't Donald Trump your new President? Who knows what could happen and how soon?

See? If you weren't so sleep deprived, you might have been quick enough to post that story first.

As an infant poster I thought I shouldn't start more than one thread per week. I starting to learn a few of the other unwritten LR rules. But yes, I wouldn't be fucking up so much if I got my solid8

That is a very interesting article. The Tokamak is already being scaled up to a full size test unit, I wonder how long until this happens to a stellarator? What was the power output during the half hour runs?

I assumed it was an oblique reference to harnessing power from the sun, which is basically just one big fusion reactor, and using it to grow plants...

I believe that the problem with the Tokamak is that it consumes more energy that it produces due to the very short time period it can actually run before it has to shut down.

The stellarator on the other hand has shown more potential during tests
