Researchers were able to produce 2.5 megajoules of energy, 120 per cent of the 2.1 megajoules used to power the experiment.

    i wrote this further upthread before reading yours. great minds think alike.

    my prediction purely based on a book i’m working on: Chinese will crack the commercial reactors first and create highly modular reactors to sell to any nation that wants them. this will finally kill the U.S. dollar.
