Lasted for 48 seconds. Interesting stuff. No DEI in South Korea I guess.

[plain talk]

Wow. 100M degrees Celsius. Another step forward in research.

[absalom01]

OK, that’s impressive, but my bet is that India will have a working LFTR long before there’s a production fusion plant anywhere in the world.

[DesertRhino]

Whoa.... 48 seconds is kinda crazy. I remember when it was a feat to do it for a few milliseconds.

[from occupied ga]

And in 50 years commercial production of fusion power will be just 20 years away (and untold billions of dollars of taxpayer funds away)

100M degrees for a minute.

hmmm... let’s say that was a single sq mile.
there are 200m square miles on earth.

evenly distribute that 100m degrees across the entire earth would increase each square mile by 0.5 degrees for a few minutes.

where are the global warming people?

[[Scientists in South Korea have announced a new world record for the length of time they sustained temperatures of 100 million degrees Celsius ]]

And now we know the real reason for global warming!

Fusion is folly. It’s 200 years away from viability for many reasons, not the least of which that fission is effective, safe, easy, and ready.

[Chode]

100 million degrees... OK, for how long before the tokamak slags down???

[ZULU]

Wait until they perfect it. Some econuts will ban it.

[piytar]

Fusion will be here soon! In only ten years. Just like it has been “soon” for the past several decades...
