A massive nuclear fusion experiment just hit a major milestone, potentially putting us a little closer to a future of limitless clean energy.

Ah, I'm glad to see the thorium / MSR bros are still spewing their nonsense after all those years.
And how long have fusion dipshits been spouting their crap? 1938 was the first attempt. Look how far we've got so far? There was a working MSR(E) that produced 10MW through out the 1960's but we are the crackpots. Gotcha…
Oh wow, 10MW, fantastic. Our energy issues are solved!
It was an experiment that was only a part reactor hence the (E) on MSR. They still had to build the "blanket" portion of the reactor.
Also the inventor of the light water reactor which is primarily used across the world and even influenced the CANDU reactors was designed by Alven Wineberg, the same person who designed the MSRE and was in favor or MSRs in general
So then there's clearly nothing stopping the world from a broad adoption!
Just the fact that the US govt couldn't make bombs with MSR's so they cut all funding and this causes people to think the technology doesn't work when in reality it would destroy current monopolies because it does work and is crazy cheap. Would also allow for these to be built almost anywhere because it doesn't need water to operate like Light water reactors
Ah, yes, the whole world of the United States of America! o7
What other country was working on MSR?
Yeah use your brain man
China is from the last I read.
Right back to you my friend who still blindly takes the bait. You still don't even understand why there's no broad usage of MSR and spew your nonsense reasons for both pro and contra.
I'll still call you a crackpot, buddy 😊
