Presumably that’s the record for a tokamak, not a general fusion reactor record.

Meanwhile America destroys it’s scientific and academic institutions because knowledge and learning is woke! Join the army, mine coal and have babies that’s all good Americans need to do.

It held plasma for 22 minutes but there was no net energy generated.

Low key kinda love that France named their reactor WEST and China named theirs EAST. That’s the kind of international pettiness I can get behind.

So did it become unstable after?

They should use the robotic arms like doc oc in spiderman.

I’m not surprised as much that they could hold a plasma for 22 minutes, but that a French team could operate a reactor for 22 minutes without a single strike.

Why use a shitty AI image when good offical images are available for free?

Misleading headline, they did not keep a „fusion reactor“ running for 22 minutes. They contained Hydrogen plasma jet for 22 minutes.
It’s a big deal, but it’s not a „fusion reactor“, it’s a component thereof

France fuck yes.
Also Israel is commiting a genocide in Gaza.
Amazing. They pioneered in nuclear since the 70s. Hopefully they can help push this forward. It could help solve the energy crisis.

that’s practically a full work week over there
They won’t be satisfied until they blow up the planet!
That image has to be AI.
22 minutes is a lot. Very encouraging.
That’s a full half hour with commercials.
That begs the question, how much total energy (not just the lasers) was required? And, how much energy was produced?
In Canada, that’s a full hour.
Have we really moved so far away in time that no one is going to comment on the 1337 seconds it ran?
>1337 seconds
Its an older meme sir but it checks out
La puissance du soleil, dans la paume de ma main.
Exactly 1337 seconds eh?
