The Joint European Torus fusion reactor released a record-setting 59 megajoules of energy.
An experimental nuclear fusion project has set a world record in generating energy on Earth using the same kind of reactions that power the sun.
In the new experiments, the Joint European Torus in Culham near Oxford, England, produced blazingly hot plasmas that released a record-setting 59 megajoules of energy — about the same amount of energy unleashed by the explosion of 31 pounds of TNT. Nuclear fusion — the same reaction that occurs in the heart of stars —…
