France has upped the ante in the quest for fusion power by maintaining a plasma reaction for over 22 minutes – a new record. The milestone was reached on February 12 at the Commissariat à l'énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives (CEA) WEST Tokamak reactor.

    Why don’t we use “shatters world record” like the pro-China articles where they did this for 16 minutes?

    I know why.

        Nah.

        It’s because of the Chinese propaganda machine.

      Is it because of the Uyghurs?

      Why do you care so much what an article says about France’s accomplishments of science and China’s accomplishments of science? Why can’t we enjoy the movement of technology without bickering about lines drawn in the sand by people none of us know or care about?
