- It was developed as a collaborative effort between the European Union and Japan.
- It features a doughnut-shaped “tokamak” vessel designed to contain swirling plasma heated to an astounding 200 million degrees Celsius.
- This state-of-the-art facility serves as a precursor to the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) in France.
- Nuclear fusion is a clean and sustainable energy source.
- Nuclear fusion is a revolutionary alternative to the current nuclear power plant technology based on fission.
- It involves the process of fusing two atomic nuclei to create a single, heavier element.
- Unlike fission, which entails splitting atomic nuclei, fusion has the potential to provide abundant energy with minimal environmental impact.
