    Through the whirlpool of the magnetic trap are turned and the neutrons. This is the mode of unfolding of the thermonuclear reaction from Sun. The waiting as the collision of fusion let it make accidental or aleatory is not a solution for a commercial installation. Thus after the lateral coupling proton-neutron-proton-neutron in alpha particle, this will attract and will fix rigid and two electrons forming the normal atom of helium(4/2He).

  • • SandustanBrasov

    The model of thermonuclear controlled reactor proposed of myself- reproduces entirely the conditions from Sun. Viz: 1).-produce a globe of plasma and turned it with 800m/s; 2).-ensure a magnetic trap with two electromagnetic crossed fields which dress and turn the globe of plasma; 3).-supply continuously with hydrogen in state of plasma and ensure the its confination. Moreover, makes possibly the direct gathering of the electrical current.

  • Simply Amazing!!! What Human Beings were put on Earth to do.

  • • SandustanBrasov

    The test for nuclear fusion realisation on Tokamak's installations and with LASER cannot bring anything new for the energetics' future. I bind the thermonuclear controlled reactor schedule by the Sun model , by the reactive electromagnetic motor schedule from Palenque stone's tombe. You see the my project for thermonuclear controlled reactor.

    The conditions of thermonuclear controlled fusion: temperature, concentration, confinement and duration - can not obtained never in a tokamak installation, because the her incapacity of the magnetic trap, which can not dress and surround whole the thermonuclear plasma. The plasma can not be restrained, can not be maintained and thus can not be heating. Till now 2011 - it confined not the plasma on the tokamak installations.

  • SandustanBrasov

    Through divertor it remove the impurities from the chamber of thermonuclear combustion and it consider the single zone where the plasma is leted free let touch the walls. Really is good? Really is logical this construction? If will be not existed the solar magnetosphere with the her magnetic trap as let dress complete the incandescent solar mass, then the our planet can burn and remain without water.

  • SandustanBrasov

    The Sun shows us how it prepare and how it produce the thermonuclear reaction, and the resonant generator of Tesla shows us how it can extract the electricity - the particles of the electrical ether, without to utilize the switchs of heat. The ethereal explanation of the phenomenon is necessary because in outside of electricity= electrical ether, all ethereal substances are: the electrons, the inductive magnetic field,as and the electrical field.

  • SandustanBrasov

    My brethren, you have capacity of to construct the thermonuclear controlled reactor, only that, you must needs let construct something fuctional. The tokamak were invented inj 1950 by physicists Igor Tamm and Andrei Sakharov, inspired by idea of to Oleg Lavrentyev, when he studyed the realization of the hydrogen bomb, which has not need of magnetic trap, and thus, all the experiments were finished with the destruction of the tokamak instalations in the central zone.

  • can someone please tell me the title of the accompanying jarre soundtrack,I've tried trawling his whole back catologue&cannot find it anywhere?

  • in hl2 when they make this aliens show up and take over the world. lol

  • Jean Michel Jarre (soundtrack ) has always been the official singer of ITER Project... since he was born !

    All the world believe that the Sun give direct light and heat. But these are the result of combination of the particles of the gravitational radiations of the Earth with those of the Sun. Therefore the light exist in a con of light between Earth and Sun, more far in space is cold and complete obscurity. From the union second of second of the gravitational particles solar and terrestrial it produce thousands millions microscopic sparks which form the our light and heat.

  • this will fail and create a supermassive black hole wich gonna destroy the earth in 2 seconds.

  • @SunriseFestival this isnt the large hadron collider you dumbass

  • @VarykGerai it is, read the sign you dumbass

  • @SunriseFestival again, its fusion reactor, not a particle collider double dumbass

  • @VarykGerai same thing, dumbass

  • @VarykGerai megatard

  • SandustanBrasov

    The ITER is a big confusion, a big error with the his tokamak toroidal chamber without magnetic trap. We let make a magnetic trap such how is the solar magnetosphere, which hold compressed the incandescent solar mass, of not emerge outside not even the rays of light, not even the heat. With internal magnetic trap and with the rapid turning of the globe of plasma it establish one electrical field what traverse the globe of plasma and it can extract direct the electric current.

  • We should find a way to grap hold of the black matter we pruduce at CERN,dan we can produce a gravity core for a fusion reactor.The black matter so far desolves to fast,when it appears.

  • We should feed it some how with matter.

  • *sigh* GTFO you amateur!

  • this must be ironic

  • awesome video. I have never seen the proposed ITER tokamak broken down in such detail. it really gives a sense of how massive and complex the project is. the human mind is an amazing thing- there is such a collection of knowledge and technique going into this. go fusion! the future is exciting, if not terrifying.

  • Are either one a bad thing?

  • The fusion is the future... soon we'll can tell goodbye to the petrol productors countrys...

  • @nicolettileo

    i hope i can witness it ^^

  • this is the way of the future, we have vast amounts of tritrium and detrium, when we can fully control fusion we will be able to make 10 times the amount a fission reaction can output, so for every 50MW we would gain 500 MW back, correct me if im wrong but lets hope this research gets more recognized globally.

  • Indeed. Once you kickstart the raction itself, it's like a plasma fire; all it needs is fuel. And magnetic insulation...

  • And a beam pulse of 10Hz with the energy potential of a small town :)

  • Luckily we have an unlimited energy supply..

    /irony

  • Wow, everything is so massive

  • nuclear fusion kill petrol...............!

  • as far as I have no idea about this the biggest concern as far as I know about are the neutrons flying around when the two atoms become one ..... now that is a problem because the reactor becomes radioactive itself ... hope that some smart geek will find a way how to overcome this issue

  • Plasma is no allow for neutron to do escape the inside wall because when reactor fusion start ther is not escapted. I so sorry my english is very bad. but not a problem with neutron. Have Smile day bye.

  • You can have your ferrari and not feel guilty about emissions!

  • To those who gave me the thumbs down:

    Oooh so you don't like the fact that fusion power may be able to solve global warming? I'll carry on looking for some practical technological solutions like this to global warming, and you can live in your tree and complain about the ethics of civil aviation (4% of global CO2 emissions)

  • @skipperrrrrr @skipperrrrrr The "global warming issue" is utter bullshit phantomed up by a relatively tiny crew of wealthy elites in order to cause global panic instrumental to the advancement of their covert sinister agendas with the whole world increasingly held into ransom.

  • please explain the record temperature recorded this year in moscow.

    please explain the reduction of the polar ice caps.

    please explain the raise of the sea level.

    please explain why glacier in alps and more are reducing.

    the air in big cities like Los angelos / peking is literally yellow.

    all this is mere fantasy?

    YOU IGNORANT IDIOT

  • when i was a small boy there use to be half a mter snow during the winters, this has never occured again and has never occured again, IF there is snow is merely a few cm and it's gone after a few days

  • @naturalyshocked No doubt, global warming exist and it has been scientifically proven by different scientists that it is a naturally occurring cyclical Earth climate process (e.g. due to the complex orbital movements of the Earth on its rotation and revolution) etc. But to say man is ultimately responsible for Earth's global warming and hence must be deprived of the essential necessities of life (to a bare sustainable minimum) is malefic and stupendiously hypocritically malicious as portrayed.

  • i'm from a coal region in the south netherlands and there used to be alot of smoke.

    no me, but my parents, grand parents have seen dark skies from cool burning.

    i also have read that it must have been very very bad in the region of England where the first steel plant was.

    the ruhr area in germany(close to my home) still has giant coal 'mountains' visible today.

    china ...

    without doupt vulcan activity plays a big part too and the methan in the permafrost.

    it seams carbon in the air takes 150 yr..

  • @7olusegun bullshit, these cycles do exist however the orbit shape with the strong eccentricity cycle takes 400 000+ thousand and it doesnt fit anywhere, the 100 000 eccentricity cycle temperature variation is ~10 degrees and yes were at near peak now, however there are temperature variations of 5-7 degrees in the middle of the cycle that are unrelated to it. The later cycle gives variation of 0.01 degree every 100 years, while in the 20st century temperature gone up by 0.7 degrees.

  • @VarykGerai All the eccenticity and precession changes do is amplify global climate cycles, so do we with our emissions, problem is if we throw things out of balance which might cause great feedback we might face serious consequences. Noone ever said that humanity is the only factor in climate change, humanity however is a new factor in the system that might change drasticaly. Risk is too great.

  • @7olusegun "The "global warming issue" is utter bullshit phantomed up by a relatively tiny crew of wealthy elites in order to cause global panic instrumental to the advancement of their covert sinister agendas with the whole world increasingly held into ransom."

    youre an idiot.

    which of the two is more plausable

    1. tiny crew of wealthy elites spreading falce data to save their fossil fuel industry.

    2. climatologists spreading falce data for some agendas that you cannot even name.

  • @VarykGerai You are a fucking bastard. What do you know regarding the shadow government, their involvement with globalism, earth summit (worship) and the formation of a new world order etc? Nothing! That's because you are an ignorant dunce. Learn to do proper research before spouting out drivels.

  • @7olusegun worship? lol. you mean nwo, satan and all that crap? wow thats some serious research. 

  • I really hope this works - ultimately if we build a fusion reactor capable of a sustained reaction and continuous fuel input, our energy needs will be permanently solved! Indefinite, sustainable very cheap energy supply. We will use the power generated to electrolise water to make hydrogen (as a fuel) and reverse all past carbon dioxide production or sequestrate it. As long as the knowledge or the cheap energy is shared woldwide, no more wars will be fought over oil.

  • eloctrolitic for make Hidrogen is not efficent, thr good kraching h2o mulecola whit hight temperature, 800 Celsius and catalist contribution

    power from atom energy reactor IV gen vlch

  • I,ve seen the future and its this, pure energy focused,distilled, god like.

  • Hey you china copy-cats! Copy this!

  • They will, they stepped in as one of the investors for ITER and have great interest to eventually make use of the technology at home.

  • china is in the iter program smart ass

  • I love it! The best engineers, scientists and technicians of the world work together to make this possible. Great!

  • That's proper cool. What's the music called?

  • If ITER works, it could solve climate change related issues for carbon based energy systems. The juice is worth the squeeze

  • ITER's dont work, so you should look into IEC's... they are the only fusion reators in the world that work, and if funded properly, would be commercially available in as little as two years.

  • "so you should look into IEC's... they are the only fusion reators in the world that work, and if funded properly..."

    So far they've failed to show even the promise of the earlist, crappiest tokamaks.

  • As compaired dollar for dollar IECs are far superior to tokamak in every way. We could have an answer in under ten years for less than 100mill. How many more years and billions will Tokamak consume before we pull the plug? The establishment dont want Polywell funded, think how stupid they will look when it does work!

  • Very interesting!

  • Great pictures! Thanks!

    "At a time when stable energy supplies and the promotion of strategies to tackle climate

    change are topics of global concern, the world is watching the ITER project. Implemented by seven parties that together make up half of the earth's population, it is utilizing the wisdom of humankind to strive for a secure and stable energy supply."

  • humans are so dumb...

    they yalling oh energy going out we need new fusion tech...

    but in the same time FAT ASS AMERICANS driving with 30 l/100km escalade JEEPS through the NEXT MCDRIVE...

    first of all USE THE ENERGY YOU HAVE WISELY!!!

    and than you will see that SUN, WIND, WATER and THERMAL sources are the only ENERGY we will need!

    cheers.

  • most everyone on this site, including you, are worthless garbage compared to the humans who create this kind of technology. im glad this tech is being invented, it shows how smart humans can be.

  • I know they've done TONS of research and stuff, but wouldn't that just suck if after all of that, it didn't work?

  • But it will work, it DOES work. In starts that is, the aim of the project is to recreate that on a much small scale. All we need are the right materials for the job. My professor reckons its gonna take about 30/40 years though.

  • 04:47 WTF is Metso doing in ITER?

  • why not making a magnetic levitated dipole spherical stellarator? wiht good superconductors and reasonable size?

  • I think the tokamak is still the best option in controlling the plasma

  • Tokamak can NEVER work as matter has to be compressed into an area of high density to overcome initial repulsion so the strong force can take over and fuse the atoms. This doesnt happen in a loop. Picture cars racing around in a loop(tokamak)occasionally one or two collide. Then picture cars arranged in a circle all facing toward the same central point(Polywell)then they all flaw it and try to get to that point as quickly as possible. Which method do you think would cause the most collisions.

  • the both systems need insane amount of EXTRA energy from external sources to keep them stable.

    It's all true what u say. BUT things u say are good in theory. The main point is that tokamak system needs less energy to operate. It's believed to be more "efficient"

    even tho its ALL bullshit. none earth-made fusion reactor will be efficient enough to produce energy. they do not produce but consume it. In my opinion

  • Of course they all consume it! All we have are prototypes, the technology is still young. Give it time.

  • Not true. A sphere as in Polywell presents the smallest external surface for any shape. Infinitely smaller area than a toroidal shape,so therefore confinement requires less energy to generate magnetic fields to cover a smaller area.

    "its ALL bullshit. none earth-made fusion reactor will be efficient enough to produce energy. they do not produce but consume it. In my opinion"

    Id have to agree with that if you were talking about Tokamak, but Polywell can work, has never been properly funded.

  • They should run 2 way:Thermonuclear n Cold-fusion(May relate to "spring theory"tht can generated zero point energy)The fuels can gather in moon like helium tht can useup more than 7000years common know as a most clean fuel tht no release neutron .Stop spending money on military and fund more money to tht experiment.

  • you are every right mate. We should simply stop with the damn wars. Though the only way would be banning religion I think...

  • Banning religion would never work. It is a basic human need to feel more secure by belonging to something bigger than ones self. If human needs could be satisfied and basic necessities provided globally there would be little if any need for war. It is the greed of the wealthy that keeps others poor and perpetuates the cycle of war and death.

  • that is the problem...either banning religion or having everyone the same religion, which would't work either...so..peace = fail.

  • So you assume we can not have peace without religion? Let people choose their own religion or no religion and work together in making earth a better place to live.

  • No I dont assume we cannot have peace without religion,I do however know that there is no way we can remove religious belief from society.If anything some religions are counter productive to society.Why try to improve life on this planet when a perfect heaven is waiting in the afterlife?However if people believe they will be held to account for there actions when they die that can be a good thing by keeping them honest.The problem is diversity of religion as often it can cause wars and hatered

  • For fusion the best materials are Deuterium Tritium as they leave very short lived radioactive residue and they are two of the most plentiful material on earth. Deuterium can be extracted from any water source and Tritium is contained in abundant rocks and sands. One bath full of water and about 60 Kgs of rock can power an average family home for two years.

  • Boron 11 fusion is aneutronic.

  • Boron takes much more power to get reaction established. For a prototype as proof of concept Deuterium is a far more cost effective alternative.

  • Correct, this is why Dr Bussard worked with D-D fuel. His intention was to work out the details of polywell using d-d, then move to PB-11.

    @ talk-polywell we have assembled an open source engineering proposal for a WB-6 sized (30cm)LN2 cooled device, that theory says could see PB-11 fusion.

  • It is all dependant on scale. For a small relative portable (Would fit in a destroyer or submarine as was part of the Navy brief for Bussards research), D2 would be more viable, but for full scale power generation Boron is far superior and cleaner.

  • "For fusion the best materials are Deuterium Tritium..."

    No argument here.

    "...as they leave very short lived radioactive residue and they are two of the most plentiful material on earth."

    There's only about 50 kg of tritium on the entire Earth. It has to be continually produced from lithium which is quite rare(about 10 times more abundant than uranium).

    Only about 1 hydrogen atom per thousand is deterium.

  • For low energy experimental fusion Deuterium Tritium is best Yes, But for large scale energy production once the process is perfected Boron is best. No radiation No dangerous waste and plentiful. Energy could also be recovered more easily as it is emmitted in the form of charged particles which could be captured directly on a grid.

  • D-T fusion has the largest cross-section and fastest reaction rate

  • It's easier to Create a D-T reaction but many organizations (like NF-RPG) support D-D reactions because the produce more energy and Deuterium will last for 150 billion years at our current energy demands, THE SUNS EXCEPTED TO LAST 5 BILLION YEARS.

  • D-T reactions are more suitable for research and testing as they require less energy to start the reaction, once a system is perfected Boron would be the ideal fuel as it has no radiactive residue just stable carbon and is the safest fusable fuel.

  • actually both D-T and D-D reactions have Non-Radioactive Outputs. Helium 4 and Helium 3 respectively.

  • With Boron no more than 1% of the total energy released is carried by neutrons. Most fusion reactions release up to 80% of their energy in neutrons. Neutron radiation such as ionizing damage, neutron activation, Would require biological shielding, remote handling, and other safety issues. Most other fusion reactions involving hydrogen and helium produce penetrating neutron radiation. This induces long term radioactivity in reactor structures and weakens them, endangering operating personnel.

  • as I said 150 billion years worth of Deuterium on our planet with D-D reactions. Deuterium is natural found in our oceans, how much boron's on our planet?

  • Not awfully much, but then, it's not extremely rare either. And considering the ammount needed...

  • To develop and sustain a Boron reaction is extremely hard, and whoever said it will produce more energy is a liar. Deuterium-Deuterium reaction produce the most energy. Boron is simply too massive to produce large amounts of energy, unlike deuterium.

  • Good thing then nobody said it would ^^

  • the stupid thing is, in the first place they didnt think about where to get abundant amount supply of elements to fuss to sustain continous fussion for a year to provide continous supply of electricity before they started this shit? water is no problem but the other element? this fucking fussion will cost more.! and unstable! Natural source of energy is still the best!

  • Ever seen the sun or any other star shaped like a doughnut? Maybe it is possible but why not try what is proven to work first? Unless your intention is to prove it doesnt work or to delay getting it to work until every last drop of oil or lump of coal is used up.

  • Correct, Fusion occurs naturally in a sphere. Not in a torus.

  • "Ever seen the sun or any other star shaped like a doughnut?"

    Ever see an thermonuclear bomb secondary shaped like a star?

    Ever see a computer chip like a brain?

    Ever seen the ancestor species to corn and strawberries before human tampering?

    There's a name for what you're doing. It's called the naturalistic fallacy.

  • How did we learn to fly? we looked at the birds. We need a starting point and immitation of a working process is a good starting point. A true spherical shape as with a thermonuclear bomb is not possible as we are confined in a gravitational field but there are advantages to the shape as it reduces external surface area for compairable densities therefore reducing radiated losses to the ambient, allows smaller more efficient magnetic confinment fields,directs forces inwardly to a central point

  • Millions of fusion reactors have run for millions of years. They are called stars,not one works by wizzing superheated plasma around in a loop hoping that the odd atom or two will collide and fuse. This is a scientists wet dream and is gobbling up billions for no return. A more promising polywell fusion reactor(which acts in a similar way to the sun)was being developed by the navy it had almost produced excess energy when its meager budget was withdrawn to fight yet another crazy war.

  • its the same principle, simply superheating and compressing gas.

  • Yes but Polywell compresses into a central point (more like a star) so the chances of the D2 atoms reaching the pressures required to fuse isnt dependant on random collisions while being propelled around in a loop like this system. The Polywell system is like magnetically induced gravity forcing matter towards a central point which becomes the area of greatest density and therefore generates the greatest pressure and the best prospect for sustainable fusion.

  • ahh, microsun technology. Makes sense

  • talk-polywell dot org

    Heres a video that explains the basics:

    youtube dot com/watch?v=jmp1cg3-WDY

  • "Yes but Polywell compresses into a central point (more like a star)..."

    No, it has positive ions whizzing back and forth through the center. It looks like a spikey blob and it's not even in thermal equilibrium.

    "...so the chances of the D2 atoms reaching the pressures required to fuse isnt dependant on random collisions while being propelled around in a loop like this system."

    It doesn't reach the pressures of a tokamak. It's dependent on random collisions as ions whizz back and forth.

  • Polywell ions are whizzing back and forth through an intersecting point. Tokomak ions are wizzing around in a toroidal loop. Tell me which one is going to produce the most collisions at comparable densities. Pressures generated by tokamak are directly related to the energy put in through the hugh magnetic coils not as a result of a more efficient process. Picture cars whizzing around in a loop like tokamak then picture cars all racing from the outside of a circle toward an intersecting point.

  • Continued:

    then if the cars miss they turn around and and race back toward the same central point again.

    Which one of these do you think will result in the most collisions.

    In light of all the billions spent on Tokamak the results have been disappointing to say the least. Prof Bussard was far more sucessfull as far as results per dollar and time wise. It would cost a meager amount to either prove or disprove his concept and would take just a few years. Money well spent I would say.

  • Wrong polywell does neither. Polywell fusion occurs in a vacume chamber, quite the opposite that you claim.

  • It compresses on an atomic level using magnetic fields forcing the atoms together.

    In polywell positive ions are confined to the inner region of the reactor by magnetic fields. Only the outer chamber remains under a vacume once the reaction is established.

  • Sorry, Polywell uses a magnetic field to create a virtual cathode, the potential well, electrons concentrate in th potential well where they act as an accelerator of ions. There is no outer chamber.

  • Its ironic that the Tokamkak or toridial fusion reactors try to curve plasma against its natural form, the sphere. Where Polywell uses this as an advantage.

    We should have results from WB-7 by summer. I think we shall see the polywell program expanded then.

  • Great news, do you have a web site for further info?

  • Just read your earlier posting with site. Thanks for info.

  • The guys at talk-polywell are real cool, send me a message if you have any problems registering. I blogged on 1st plasma here:

    dailykos dot com/story/2008/1/13/224458/454­/929/436375

  • "[tokamak] try to curve plasma against its natural form, the sphere."

    It doesn't have a natural form. Any matter will tend to form a sphere or spinning disc if you concentrate enough of it in one place; that's not a property of the plasma.

    "Where Polywell uses this as an advantage."

    You couldn't be more wrong. It's not a sphere, it's spikey blob; it's not even in thermodynamic equilibrium(that's one of the many reasons it won't work. When you fight against entropy, you're going to lose).

  • Inertial Electrostatic confinement doesnt rely on thermodynamic equilibrium. With electrostatics more voltage = more heat. A sphere presents less surface area for radiated temperature losses, far less that a toroidal shape so losses to entropy is going to be far less with Polywell.

  • "They are called stars,not one works by wizzing superheated plasma around in a loop hoping that the odd atom or two will collide and fuse."

    Not one of them achieves the energy density of a hamsterwheel either(divide the power output of the sun by its mass and you'll be pleasantly surprised).

    Polywell is not spherical, it's not even in a thermal equilibrium. When you fight entropy, you're likely to lose.

  • lol im so confused as to how the materials at hand can survive such astronomical heat......

  • They cant. That is why superheated plasma is suspended in a magnetic field. Thats what those big mother coils are for.

  • I love technical movies like this.

  • how once fusion occurs is it transformed and fed into the grid?

  • Wouldn't it be much simpler and cheaper to use less electricity in the first place? Unless this thing REALLY works it will not make any significant contribution to transportation C02 reduction. At the present time I believe I am correct in saying fusion reactors consume more power than they produce... where is the equivalent global effort on home insulation and renewables??

  • yes it would, but then again...it would mean human society taking a backstep in technological advances...but who would want that?? maybe a very small proportion

  • Why is using less taking a backward step? I do not believe so and think that working in harmony with nature is the way to go. What is the real role of technological advance or do you advocate that as an end in itself... my view is that way lies ruin.

  • Current Fussion reactors produce more power than they use. Not enough for commercial use but they will in time. 20 years till it becomes commercialy viable. 40 till Europe is powered by Fusion.

  • Are you sure because if this is true reactors would be able to run perpetually. I have found no such claim on the net. Although reactions lasting milliseconds producing excess energy have been reported, but they have never returned more energy than that required to create them.

  • Wrong, JET is the ONLY Tokamak to claim Q=1+, Go to Wiki.

  • The world has gone past the point where the human population can be sustained and fed using primative agriculture or "harmonious" food production techniques. Never has the earth had to cloth, feed, shelter and sustain so many. Without mass reduction of human population there is no way back. Technological advance is now the ONLY way forward, unless you propose culling of fellow human beings, I hope thats not what you propose?

  • coolest fucking thing i have ever seen

  • Does anyone know if ITER decided on using the laser induced adiabat shaping method for plasma confinement developed by the Rochester Laser Energetics Lab or are they using another method for plasma confinement?

  • nevermind, its magnetic confinement

  • goddamn that thing is huge

  • They aren't called(humorously) super-conducting cathedrals for nothing.

  • That takes some unbelievably complex project management. Perhaps one of the most complex projects in the world right now.

  • Food marketing spends more money than this.

  • That and the LHC project (Large Hadron Collider) in france and switzerland. Its a machine to recreate the initial conditions of the big bang to understand matter. ITER is right up there with it in terms of complexity and scaling.

  • Great video! It's hard to find much in the way of video coverage of high energy science projects such as ITER or the LHC. Keep up the good work.

  • How called the musik title?

  • VANGELIS - BLADE RUNNER...

    ;-)

  • Great science what they do there.

    Its very expensive as well, so it will take a long time and many science reactors to create the design for optimal efficiency.

    But once developed it will be a huge industry and the life assurance for energy based civilization.

  • this video is amazing. i had no idea this project was moving this fast.

  • The video is impressing and professionally done!

    We should use the energy of the SUN - it´s free!!!

    ITER will never work (without problems).

  • you do know, with our current solar panel technologies, we would need a 5 Km3 area for a 10 MW Power plant, which isn't that powerful.

  • Wasn't this in Spiderman 2?

  • Using nuclear fusion to create new, heavier resources...isn't that impossible with our current level of technology? The coloumb barrier for D-T fusion is high but for fusion of heavier elements it's astronomical...

  • its not impossible, just very economically unpractical (at current tech levels). Particle accelerators already can create new elements, its just that it does so 1 atom at a time.

  • Don't you think the guys working at ITER and other projects know it better?

  • Nice job Bruno

  • The music is 'Arpeggiator' by Jean-Michel Jarre, and can be found on his "Concerts in China" album from 1982

  • Thanks for that. Nice tune.

  • The fusion torch can create new mineral resources from ordinary dirt and rock, and get rid of waste by reducing it to its constituent elements.transformations of raw materials, to meet the needs of the planet, without depleting

  • You're absolutely right, never thought about Fusion power this way... Although it is very expensive, the benefits it will bring to mankind are countless... Aren't there any disadvantages of Fusion reactions despite the cost? I'm certain we will enter a new era after the conclusion of these projects.

  • Amazing that it's taking this long to make fusion happen. At the same time, new fission reactors are being drawn up all over the world to pollute our mother with the scariest sh*t that is out there.

  • Plasma is one of the purest thing we achieved.
