If China acquires viable nuclear fusion power, it will be six months (and a $100mil contribution to the Chelsea for President fund) after we develop it.

So how does it not melt its containment vessel?

good grief...
what could possibly go wrong with creating a sun...
wow, I will be amazed if mankind doesn’t off itself by accident before I grow old.

So, you’re suggesting that the science is the same as that with Global Warming?

So how does it not melt vaporize its containment vessel and everything around it?

Probably because the US program is a bottomless money pit.

Indees. Tokamak is not the only way to produce fusion. Amongst others are particle colliders, laser arrays, x-ray lasers and electically driven implosions of wires at temperature high enough to create x-rays.

From what I read of laser arrays, it does sound interesting and it is fueled by continuing development of laser technology.

The vessel is in a shape of the magnetic fields driven by a core. These magnetic fields keep the plasma contained in a ball of “fire” which does not touch the container which remains insulated by a vacuum, I believe.

Yep. There are many unsolved problems of efficiency and dissipation. My high school buddy solved part of the problem in the Tokamak in his paper on the Landau damping. He got the Fields Medal for it (Cedric Villani) and there will be a need for mathematicians like him in the future. It takes 40 years to make a mathematician like this and have him decide one day to solve a problem if he wants to. We are a long way off, especially in nowaday’s climate of praising retards like Obama or Sanders who want to give all this money to liberal art kids on pot.
