"Over the next few years about a million individual components of the highly complex fusion reactor will arrive at the Cadarache site from around the world. They will be assembled like a giant Lego model in a nearby building which has a volume equal to 81 Olympic-sized swimming pools.
Nothing is left to chance in a project that has defied potential Babel-like misunderstandings between the collaborating nations. The design, development and construction of a machine that will attempt to emulate the nuclear fusion reactions of the Sun is proving to be a triumph of diplomacy, as well as science and engineering."

So they are going to turn the earth into a second sun. Why can't they build a tiny one first.

They have been working on this thing for like 20 years now.
So far it has been a huge waste of time money and resources.
I'm not going to be holding my breath.

Putting Greer aside, IF and a big... if they were to create such a thing the cost would be ridiculously absurd. Somebody's going to pay for it in the form of an equally ridiculous power bill.

“A Fukushima-like accident is impossible at Iter because the fusion reaction is fundamentally safe. Any disturbance from ideal conditions and the reaction will stop. A runaway nuclear reaction and a core meltdown are simply not possible,” he said.
