China's 'artificial sun' project enters key construction phase
China's nuclear fusion research project has reached a major milestone: the project complex for the Burning Plasma Experimental Superconducting Tokamak (BEST) was officially delivered and put into operation, China Media Group (CMG) reported on Thursday.BEST,
In the Chinese city of Hefei, Anhui Province, a technology park for testing the experimental superconductive BEST current, known as the "artificial sun", has begun to operate. The main unit of the thermonuclear fusion facility is at a key stage of construction and is being assembled with four rings. This is reported by China's Central Television, which transmits TASS. A number of the main components of the plant were delivered to the site in Jul…
In China, they're trying to replicate the physical processes that power the Sun by fusing atomic nuclei under extreme temperatures and intense pressure. Beijing has just taken a major step in the race for this nearly inexhaustible source of clean energy.
China's 'Artificial Sun' Reactor Passes Halfway Mark as Fusion Power Target Nears
Image Courtesy: X China has completed more than half of the main reactor assembly for its Burning Plasma Experimental Superconducting Tokamak (BEST), a major nuclear fusion project in Hefei, Anhui Province. The facility aims to demonstrate that fusion can generate usable electricity, with power demonstrations targeted for around 2030. The project has entered a critical […]
