“A man-made sun that could power our planet”

Words from Dr. Octopus in Spiderman 2.

At 15 million degrees I guess this isn’t cold fusion.

Sounds like an uncontrolled burn if it gets loose.

Kevmo is the resident expert on that.

Warning: don’t poke any fun at Kevmo or what he posts. He’s a sensitive and serious guy.

That's one way to reboot the planet that its inhabitants are unable to fix.

It would probably be more productive to work on our ability to harness and store the power of the real Sun.

The good news is that England is an island, so the rest of the planet would probably be ok if it caught on fire...

#1..My eye saw “Tokamak”; the company that will be developing this system.
But my brain said Tomohawk.
I must have had that baseball team on my mind.

#2..This system sounds as enormously dangerous as it is powerful.
I hope this company is designing several Fool Proof methods to quickly turn this OFF if need be.

> He insists that the company is on track to deliver the world’s first commercial nuclear fusion power plants by the late 2030s.

Well at least he didn’t say “in only 10 years”.
