Something something Chinese nuclear fusion Something someth

Either Germans and Chinese are going to be the first to have unlimited free energy within our lifetimes. Whoever wins we lose.

I'm fine with a fourth reich to be honest.
germans are extremely efficient.

If I have to live in a distopian world, it better be perfectly organized, respect sciences and engineering, and have blondes and beers as values.

A perfectly organized world could only be seen as dystopian if you are a non-german.

Germans will be very efficient with raping your mom, satisfying their scat fetish and killing your fat ass.

I'll be laughing really fucking hard if the Chings get 1:1 before ITER.

I don't know if I should be annoyed because they fell for the tokamak meme or happy because the fusion race is on.
Anyway it's gonna be interesting.

Anon senpai that sounds like a utopia not distopia. Especially the blondes

I despise the Chinese so much.

Sorry, but I'll put more faith in this when someone from outside verifies it.
China has a history of embellishing facts.

Laughed so hard, then packed my bags, Frankfurt here i come.

Dr Angela Merkel is a physical chemist.

>Other reactors of its design have a hard time maintaining plasma of this temperature for 20 seconds before a reactor meltdown starts to be a concern, much less a minute and 42.

In other words, all they did was ignore safety and kept their hands off the kill switch....

The trick is still sustained temperatures and converting that to energy.... beyond 2050..

Also, can't find the Chinese paper, but I'm pretty sure they didn't break the yield record held by JET, simply because of JET's big fucking size.

Brit here. Fuck you, Germany is already spreading their unwelcome tentacles in the form of fiddling with our immigration laws. Krauts stay in kraut land.

Salty white man detected.

if it was 50 million degrees why didn't the earth melt? You would think the earth would melt considering the sun is only a few million celsius. I'm gonna call bullshit on this

Wish I was smart enough to be a part of this

You just need a good analogy. That'll restore your confidence and self-worth.

B-but it is made in China...

I'm keeping an eye on the fusion scene, it has gotten fucking nuts the last 2 years or so,you have some serious players in the ring now, Lockheed Martin have a massive boner for fusion because it's a defense company dream, you can make all your own energy in house and make the regulators love your ass for zero emissions. Also, ships that can harvest their own fuel from sea water and planes that can fly for years at a time.

>if it was 50 million degrees why didn't the earth melt?
they use magnetic fields to contain the plasma

it's like a few grams in a 1 cube km "room

>>7850423
>fusion on a plane
Will never happen for the same reason why nuclear planes never happened. too heavy and the public doesn't like to see nuclear reactors flying around. This reminds me FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T CALL THIS NUCLEAR POWER. For the sake of publicity scientist should agree to drop the term "nuclear" from nuclear fusion in order to prevent it going the same way that nuclear fission did with the public. It's been done before. Nuclear magnetic resonance imagers dropped the nuclear prefix and are now widely known as "MRI" machines in order to make the public less iffy about going into one.

>>7850450
public a shit

if any assholes are going to create a black hole it's these ones.

Other Brit here, they let you out of the hospital on a day pass or what? You contribute nothing but show everyone the poison and bile that is inside your head - I hope you can live with it.

Nice try Hess, I hope the reactor blows up and takes all you Nazis to hell with it.

What do you mean?

What are the chances that we'll be seeing working fusion reactors in our life time? Are there any huge insurmountable obstacles I'm not aware of?

>What are the chances that we'll be seeing working fusion reactors in our life time?
High. ITER will reach ignition, there's no doubt about it. It's large enough for that, by a great margin. The technology (plasma-facing materials, etc) is so advanced that it take a shitload of time to develop, but other than that fusion works. After ITER comes DEMO, which will actually put electricity into the grid.
Are there any huge insurmountable obstacles I'm not aware of?
No. To be quite honest, the hardest part will be the the EU doesn't disband because of retarded nationalists.

People see delays in the construction of ITER -and also distrust whatever has "nuclear" in it like the retards they are- and then blame it on the physics of fusion, again like the retards they are, but fusion does work and we're getting pretty good at understanding it.

100% and no.

That's right it's the nationalists fault, not the globalists who have systematically fucked the EU population to the point where I'm surprised it's only Britain wanting to leave. But ignoring that ITER is a project that would survive the break up of the EU, a bit like CERN and the ESA, ultimately all they care about is if you're willing to fund them. If you are then you're welcome aboard. Unless I've missed something and Israel and Norway have become part of the EU.

>>7852150
Ackchually Israel is in Eurovision and the European football championship. Why, I have no idea, perhaps we adopted them because Asia doesn't want them.

>>7852184
>Ackchually Israel is in Eurovision and the European football championship.

And that's my point (although those two European institutions are more tangential. Neither Israel nor Norway are members of the EU, yet they're welcome to participate in both CERN and the ESA solely because they are willing to fund it.

>>7852205
Excatly, "we need the EU" is German cuck lies.

the /pol/ification of 4chan is really tragic.

Well i love my nation, that's why i don't want to see some kremlin-funded nutjobs to fuck it up. Hence I despise nationalism and I very much pro-EU, just like ANY scientist in Europe.

It's fake, they just made it up to not seem like chumps compared to the Germans, mark my words.
