Due to recent active efforts, the ChiComs have generated long pulse tokamak fusion free of instabilities. As long as 30 seconds (longest run).

It is claimed that this may lead to long pulsed fusion. Which, in my opinion is another longer stroke version of putt-putt boat fusion. It seems 24-7 continuous fusion is closer now by .00000000000621887 percent. Not that I would rain on their parade.

Fusion is the energy of the future....and it always will be
The more complex the idea put forward by the poor amateur, the more likely it will never see embodiment
