Well, it’s where the UK’s shiny new non-EU passports are being printed. Plus, it was the Poles that really cracked the Enigma, so they’d probably do better with a fusion device anyway.
I didn’t know that they are printed here in Poland
I love the irony of that, especially considering all the hate towards Polish immigrants that can be seen in the UK.
The claim has always been that fusion would produce no radioactive waste. But when the fusion containment vessel itself becomes radioactive, from being bathed in gamma rays from a sustained fusion reaction, what then? Is there a plan for disposing of the radioactive structure, or even a plan for taking it apart safely?
Thanks for that info. I thought they had shut it down when ITER started. I spent some time there in the training mock up and it was like being in a science fiction future.
