Oh shit. Things are heating up in the fusion race.

IIRC it was expected because previous record from China was essentially a trial for this one. It all happens under ITER project so it’s not that much of a race.

Good. The only thing that was
quiteremotely good about the cold war was the competition. -

Good shit. I’d rather this be a global cooperative effort rather than a jingoistic dick-waving contest.

This is a worldwide collaboration, where each assists the others, and it's a much better way of making progress. See ITER.

I should've replaced 'quite' with a more clear 'remotely' but you're absolutely correct

It's several cooperative and competitives projects. Diversity is not bad for science anyway. ITER itself involve tons of countries.
