Europe can‘t live without the US, that is crystal clear. Hence, it is good that there is such crucial cooperation.
I would not enjoy writing the lift plan for that.
France does not have to do it on its own. Use Germany, Nordics, etc. 100 million extra work force in EU. And soon the US scientists who built that will come to the EU.
ITER is a global project that even russia, china, india, usa, eu and more are a part of, and all scientific progress is shared 100% between all members.
Dont think it was ever intented that France would “do it all alone”
That they are saying “France Can’t Do It Alone” right now is a bit…
Anyway it is an explicitly international which even has its main members in its official logo “China EU India Japan Korea Russia USA” so it is not weird that France is not making all the parts.
Anyway it is a cool (if very slow going) project, first plasma/activation is planned around 2034-2035 so yea, there is a long wait to go still.
ITER, involving 35 countries, aims to demonstrate fusion energy‘s feasibility by producing 500 MW of power, despite financial and logistical challenges.
Edit : Please ignore the “France can’t do it alone” Part. Don’t know why journalists need to sensationalize everything.
That’s a pretty big fridge magnet.
This is such a dumb statement. The class bully is contributing his part to a team project as planned all along saying “See?? Told you so!!11elv”
*everybody else is rolling eyes*
60 feet = 18.288 metres
Edit: fixed wrong decimal position, apologies!
No shit, its a global project with over 30 countries involved. Also, why are we using bullshit imperial measurements here?
NUCLEAR FUSION WOOOOOO COME OOOON LET’S FUCKING GOOOOO WE CAN DO IIIT
Science still uniting the world, how is religion and democraty doing?
The title could as well be written as “USA delivers its contribution to a global collaborative project” which is kind of surprising news considering the recent developments.
Elon Trump: “Magnets, how do they work?…tariff them. If the frenchies want something, they MUST pay!”
…I can’t use /s for this, odds are that we would see something like that. Such is our shared and unfortunate reality.
ITER is a project, which is starting to get old, with an international vocation
[x] Catchy negative title
[x] Referring to EU as country
[x] Use “feet” as measurement on a scientific topic (maybe thats why it goes from 60 feet in title to 59 feet within 4 sentences..)
I think this is positive news.
As others already pointed out, this is a project based on international cooperation.
Also, if the US industry would focus more on future technology like this, their government wouldn’t need to extort other nations with absurd tariffs to buy more from them. If Trump wants Europe to import more “energy” from the US, than he should incentivize the US industry to produce more state of the art wind turbines, solar panels etc. and sell them for competitive prices. Then European industry would gladly buy from them voluntarily. (Trump can keep his overprices fossile fuels. We aren’t in the 20th century anymore.)
Just saw an article with a chinese delivery with the same kind of headline…
ITER is probably the most ambitious scientific and engineering project in the history of mankind, and its success would basically resolve almost every problem with energy we have.
We really don’t need this kind of narrative in this collaboration
