Chinese scientists started to develop a fusion operation torus four decades ago in mountains southwest of inland Sichuan Province.
In 1965 ?
Yeah right.
Fusion is just around the corner. In about 20 years! I've been hearing that for the last 40 years.
I hope it blows up...
China has not been noted for either physics or math, but who knows, they may be catching up. If they get a net positive energy production from their fusion reactor, more power to them, so to speak.
