Obviously not everything is a race, and adoption matters much more than invention, but was interesting seeing China, France, and Britain’s (and I think Canada maybe?) fusion teams one upping their fusion length records. I think my money is still on China, but I’m not a fusion expert so I’m not quite sure hoe far apart all the contenders are from each other.
The fact that the only serious investment comes from governments implies quiet the opposite, that it’s really only useful for scientific research.
I think it’s still incredibly useful for research! But that’s it.
