While some countries are still battling with infrastructures, potholes, electricity among others, China is thinking of having its own Sun to power the earth.

Scientists at the Hefei institutes of physical science, part of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASHIPS), have developed a nuclear fusion reactor that achieved 100 million degrees Celsius in its core plasma during a four-month experiment this year. Nicknamed the ‘Chinese Artificial Sun’, the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) can reach temperatures seven times hotter than the core of the real sun, which is about 15 million degrees Celsius.

EAST is the first fully superconducting Tokamak with a non-circular cross-section in the world, designed and constructed by China with a focus on key science issues related to the application of fusion power. The Chinese scientists, in collaboration with domestic and international colleagues, carried out experiments on plasma equilibrium and instability, confinement and transport, plasma-wall interaction and energetic particle physics to demonstrate long-time scale, steady-state H-mode operation with good control of impurity, core/edge MHD stability, and heat exhaust using an ITER-like (international thermonuclear experimental reactor) tungsten divertor.

The experiment shows China is making significant progress towards Tokamak-based fusion energy production, which could provide the basis for a limitless source of clean energy.

China... Hmmm

Someone is somewhere promoting Buhari.

Lol. If it can be hotter than the sun, then it can't be close to earth (global warming).

Also, the funds needed to manage this will cause a huge dent in the economy.

Oga, Always look at the bright side. Always read up other than hating because your country is still struggling with pencil production. The provision to prevent those has been made already

Come on we are talking of unlimited energy here

All i see is an Endtime instrument




It may turn out a disastrous instrument comes World war III

Hehehe, do any of you ever get that weird feelings that movies such as Geostorm, 2012 and a few others are so true and that man will surely cause its own doom? Every day I keep seeing reasons why Thanks wants to wipe away half of the universe

Steady sun I think means no night, and dark atmosphere makes my sleep comfortable and I like it that way sun for day and darkness for night.
