Chinese researchers have announced the first ever plasma discharge from China's superconducting research center is set to occur next month. Their experiment is known as the artificial sun. The device is research into what is hoped ultimately will be a potentially infinite source of energy. This is achieved through the process of extracting deuterium from sea water under extreme temperatures. The discharge is expected to take place on August 15th. It will take place at Science Island in Hefei, which is in the eastern part of China in the Anhui Province. The People's Daily reported these developments. Scientists, in interviews with the paper, stated that a successful test in August will represent the world's first nuclear fusion device to work. Many scientists around the world are concerned with what they see as risks inherent in the process. Chinese researchers have countered that any radiation from the process will be confined and will cease when the test is completed. |
