Sucks it takes a dozen countries to even prove the concept... we spend 22 billion in a blink of an eye but won't lead the way on fusion. Wind and solar is not the way but fission and fusion is.. I just wish more people/countries would understand how clean even fission is compared to solar.. the advancements that could have been made is sickening to know.

you are mistaken my friend, putting people off planet to a nearby body like mars is equally important as this. imagine getting swiped with a metoer impact or anything that resembles a mankind wiping event will give humans a surviving chance than having only one rock foothold. but i agree with, sunpower on earth is going to revoltionize energy source for human plus quantum computing, AI, EV, space exploration..exotic materials, these are stuff of Star Trek that is now slowly in our reach.

Incredibly exciting! Engineering marvels like ITER act as inspiration to all the many scientifically-minded people on Earth. The march of progress continues.

I'm not up to speed on the pressure vessel repair. I read awhile back that cracks in the weldment were found. What is the solution that was found to be adequate?
Been following this for a decade. Exciting to see it near completion! Edit: an update that I seen last year showed them putting part of the tokamak together. But, in this video, looks like they have removed them parts for repair
I love the video, however, the music used in the 'ITER by drone - latest update' was much more pleasing to the ears and also a better match to the awe of this project. All the best from an engineer who worked for years on JET.
C’est beau ! Par contre , même si c’est pour ITER , le telepilote de drone ne peux pas s’affranchir des 120m de hauteur par rapport au sol … bien dépasser à plusieurs reprises 😅
J'ai pas vu d'altimètre sur la vidéo, le type de caméra joue aussi sur la vision, un capteur large donne une impression de profondeur donc de distance, je ne serais pas aussi formel que votre commentaire...
But can they be scaled up? Perhaps, and perhaps not. The pre-ITER model, JET, just outside Oxford, has been operating for decades, steadily progressing to produce more fusion, achieving 59 megajoules in February 2022.
La vitesse de construction est trop lente et a été retardée de plus de dix ans. C'est un échec total. Tous les obstacles bureaucratiques et procéduraux doivent être éliminés et la construction doit être réalisée 24 heures sur 24.
I worked on the JET machine that came before ITER - it had cost overruns, took longer than originally planned, and it had numerous setbacks. It was however finished. It exceeded it's original goals, created fusion, and we learned a lot, not least that with a positive mindset, our species can achieve what some believe is impossible.
Crazy to think that this project started in 1988... It won't fully be operational until around 2035.. 47 years from design to completion, with a cost estimate of around 65 billion dollars and it can only run for 8 minutes... That is one hell of an expensive experiment..
The dismal amount of views and likes on this is a fucking atrocity. Far as my two cents go, ITER is humanities single most important project right now - a true world saver if it pans out.

This has to be one of the most ambitious, most exciting, most incredible project of human kind of this decade. Forget mars, we can bottle a star!

I need that cooling tower to cool my 4x4090 rig.
Never mind setbacks, it’s just like in any large project. Never mind €, the science results about this very promising energy source are worth it.

Amazing
ITER is so incredibly great
one of the hope of the human race are with yours, good luck.
Nice to see most components are made and there, hopefully operation doesn't put too much stress and make repairs too constant
amazing... would like to work at the iter someday.
there is Iter and Hinkley point C.. Two megamoth projects!!

I still remember when half of this project was still on a white board!!
Guys put deadlines for all tasks this way project will go faster.
I'm pretty sure they do have deadlines and do their best to hit those deadline, but shit happens!
When will all the components be integrated?
I saw 1 person walking slowly in this vid..... Not exactly "buzzing with activity"
Hard to read and watch simultaneously
When is this candle getting lit?
incredible that russia (!), usa, india, china, and europe are all still part of this in 2024
why somes pieces has to be repair?

Too big, too long, too costly while other experiments are breaking plasma records. The maintenance and repair costs are unimaginable.

Expect construction until 2028, and then research lasting 50 years
25 tonnes of helium?
It'll be in liquid form.
Helium weight 0.2 kilograms/cubic meter, nothing surprising in this sentence
it's not because it's lighter than air that it has a negative weight

Looks like they have slowed to a crawl in finishing this up. Who knows if it will even work. Not surprised people are losing interest.
ОБХСС на вас не хватает. Одни красивые картинки и пустые обещания.
It will run in about 50 years at this rate.
Much sooner than that. If all goes to plan, in 2035, ITER will seek to generate about 500 MW over 300 seconds.
