It doesn't seem to say that fusion has been achieved, only that plasma
has been generated and confined. Neither does it say that any planned
fusion generates more energy than it takes to run the thing, nor how
the energy surplus, if any, might be extracted.

Well it sounds like they've made a big step forwards.


People were making hydrogen plasmas when I was at uni, in the basement
of the physics building.
They were containing them in magnetic bottles too.

What is this new thing you think they have done?
They got $7.5m from the US government, who have obviously also joined
the EU, and spent it on a press release.

And ****** Wilkinson fell for it.


Stop living in the past.


Does that mean you've stopped wanking?


Are you a bot? Your lack of intelligence in replies seems so.
