China's 'artificial sun' set a new world record on Thursday by running for 1056 seconds at high plasma temperature, the longest duration for an experimental advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST) fusion energy reactor, Xinhua News Agency reported.
I believe that there is a net positive energy produced, but the tech to actually harness enough of that energy to yield a net positive doesn't exist yet
How much energy is produced even in this short time frame lol
Like is it a net positive to the amount of energy put into it already?
Containing and using the energy of 1000 seconds of 100million or so degrees seems like a lot of power

That's so cool lol
