Today, I continue with the technological news that comes from China, it is not only the artificial moon, it turns out that they also have plans to realize their own artificial sun. We see what the Chinese news is about, they never cease to amaze us.
The Asian giant has done it again, they have announced that they managed to manufacture an artificial sun, capable of reaching a temperature of 100 million degrees Celsius; so announced the Institute of Plasma Physics. This undoubtedly promises to be one of the most revolutionary advances in energy.
The sun is a star that provides the earth with energy in caloric form for the development of life, heat along with water, create the atmosphere in which we live today, create an artifact with the same advantages as our sun, would really be like having found the philosopher's stone of inexhaustible energy. Although it is much smaller than the original sun this artificial sun has a higher temperature than the sun.
By name, they have named it Tokamak, advanced experimental superconductor, and beat construction record taking at most 1 year and a half to finish the first prototype, the fundamental objective of this incredible apparatus is to generate energy totally free of toxic agents and that it is inexhaustible. This is how a group of scientists managed to create the artificial sun of the Asian giant, which can reach an incredible temperature of 180,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
The Institute of Plasma Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, reported in mid-year, that the device, the artificial sun in question is an advanced experimental Tokamak Superconducting thermonuclear fusion reactor, Tokamak HT - 6M, its construction is based on a vacuum stainless steel container with a series of bright magnets of red, blue and yellow, which worked with nuclear fusion technology, allowing the union of only 2 atoms, releasing a generous amount of energy. Do not confuse it with nuclear fission, which is the complete process that nuclear plantar, where atoms are divided into smaller particles, being risky to manipulate.
With this invention begins the new generation of clean nuclear energy, the Tokamak HT-6M, works with two of the isotopes that are present in the water of the oceans, deuterium and tritium, to be concentrated in large quantities in the sea, would greatly reduce the cost of production and adding the impact 0 ecological footprint, makes it a real joy for the scientific world and for us who depend on fossil fuels that are highly toxic to the environment.
The scientists who carry out the project insist that this is the perfect opportunity for a thorough study of nuclear fusion and that this becomes as technology advances a viable alternative for other sources of clean energy generation.
The Tokamak, surprisingly imitates the way stars behave, as we know stars can last millions of years, this could come very close to the energy obtained from this artificial sun is inexhaustible, reaching a temperature in its plasma nucleus of more than 100 million degrees Celsius. Surprising, isn't it?
The biggest challenge for the developers is to maintain stabilized and prolonged nuclear fusion, this phase is what could last a considerable time, in short, many years.
