The South Korean artificial sun, which goes by the name KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research), has made an important scientific discovery concerning nuclear fusion by being able to sustain plasma in high-confinement mode for a period of 102 seconds while simultaneously managing to keep plasma temperature at 100 million degrees centigrade for 48 seconds. This development by the Korea Institute of Fusion Energy (KFE) is another move towards achieving clean fusion energy, whose ability to generate unlimited amounts of electricity with little to no carbon emission is promising.

      Can’t we get just one article that doesn’t have comments about the U.S.? The article has nothing to do with the country.

        To be self-denominated as the “greatest country in the world” yeah, it Jas everything to do with the US of A.

          By that logic the UK has a few hundred more years worth of getting shit talked to go. Not to mention France, Germany, Russia, China, etc.

          Damn well near every country has claimed to be the greatest in the world at various points.

          Hell North Korea says it more then the us does!

          If your goanna clown on the us at least do it for something real and not for the equivalent of propaganda shit posting.

          Really? I think we’re reading different articles then bcz my understanding was that this article is about a Korean institution and their research into Fusion Energy.

        For weapons research. Has nothing to do with generating commercial electrical power, indeed, it never will. Exactly like all the other fusion devices.
