Tokamak still rules. They are doing incredible things with plasma control and materials science. Who knows, they might get this to work after all.

The scientists did not aim to demonstrate nuclear fusion on this occasion.

I thought this was rather humerous. Reminds me of a movie where they couldn't get it stopped either.

During that interval, it dissipated more than 600 megajoules of energy

600 megajoules? Wow that's nearly half the energy used by Anna Nicole Smith when she walks 10 feet. Which in her case should be described as "MOOving".

I couldn't figure out why my wife was calling me "fusion reactor" all day. This clears it up.
