Solar, wind, battery technology and molten salt thorium fission seems to me to be a pretty good combination. Continuous operating fusion is a long way off. Boiling water, steam turbines, mechanical generators seems kinda antiquated too. Conversation of gamma, x-rays, neutrons and thermal energy directly to electricity seems like a good idea too.

EXCELENTE DOC......

Whether will anyone ever make a movie about those people who designed and built equipment as this reactor? It would be amazing plot.

and we have created net energy gain in a Hydrogen fusion reaction. Let's do this !!!

Great video thanks 😊

"Planet of the humans" is a scary movie...this technology has to take over.

I read read other comments I saw some saying the Iter will be the one that will work, my bet is on the Z machine the reason I say so it's because of the less complicated way on how it operates. The unfortunate part is the long waiting period for this system to become functional, we have to wait until 2070 wow that's a long way, however good luck on the much dedication by our Scientist as for the Scientists who even fetched the equipment from the Airport that's pure love and dedication to his job Big up to him.

My money is on ITER. The Z machine is like trying to turn a generator by hitting the blades with a bolt action rifle

I'd imagine you'd have to figure out a way to launch another pellet into the machines center at intervals. The problem their focused on is whether gain can be achieved with this process. Once that's determined you can focus on the part you bring up. Science like this works in fits and is extremely slow going because the overall problem is basically composed of a bunch of extremely difficult small problems. It's why everything takes so long.

If something goes wrong, it just stops. Yes it will, and often. This is said of a device that is so complex that it can be expected to be shutdown for repairs for longer times than it operates. Fusion is a red herring that scientist have been milking for a half a century with global costs to date quickly approaching a trillion dollars. For goodness sake, it operates at 100 million degrees minimum! How do you transfer that heat without damaging the machine? It is foreseeable that at best, it will only be able to produce enough energy (safely) to provide for its operation. Understand this: it is hotter than a star! Thorium is the answer and has always been the answer. It also seem self-defeating to have super cooled magnets containing a hundred million degree plasma. Am I missing something here?

No, China did not say that. in any term. China recently broke another record confining a plasma at high temperatures. But this reactor (you are talking about the EAST Tokamak) can't even run with tritium and doesn't even produce energy at all.

Nucleosynthesis always requires energy. Fusion doesn't get to bypass that fact. That's why it has always required more energy to create it than what comes out. The whole universe wasn't "quark gluon plasma" in the beginning, the galaxies were quark plasma shrapnel from a collision in space when our universe turned itself into a massive particle collider. Quark plasma runs this universe, not fusion. The catalyst for fusion is all the electricity that can be pumped into it but the catalyst for quark plasma is the endless supply of the matter that causes the force of gravity. This is the catalyst that a reaction so efficient requires. Quark plasma will do everything that science thinks fusion will accomplish.

Surely the logical course of action is; Instead of striving to provide for the energy needs of nine billion people find ways to prevent the global population from continuing to increase. Our planet, cannot adequately sustain current population levels much less double current numbers. Unscrupulously irresponsible and destructive methods employed by communist Chinese fishing vessels basically amount to inshore piracy for many underdeveloped nations in Africa and South America and are inflicting catastrophic harm to relevant environments. One of the most harmful mechanisms fueling the population explosion currently occurring is so-called international 'aid organizations' the activities of which have been proliferating at an alarming rate for decades. A good example of this is Ethiopia, which received prolonged 'international aid' in response to a catastrophic drought and several other factors. As a result the population of Ethiopia exploded to the extent that the agricultural production capacity of available arable land there can no longer produce enough food to sustain the population. Without international aid, the scale at which starvation and other human tragedy would occur in Ethiopia now outweighs the consequences of the drought for which the nation initially began receiving aid by a significant margin. It has been suggested that this is a form of political blackmail in the guise of compelling leverage which basically amounts to "do as you are told or aid shipments will stop".
