If anyone's gonna do it its China. They have the most to gain from reducing reliance on oil and gas imports, and they have the money, institutional knowledge, and manpower to do it.
I just think its funny that after all the effort expended on experimental designs over the past few decades it turns out the Tokamak is still the best one. USSR stay posthumously winning.
i've been obsessively posting about it since this site started. china is going to dominate the world (in a good way) simply by mass producing commercial fusion reactors and selling them to every nation that wants them. and start a fusion fuel economy. it will be a net gain for everyone, unlike the fossil fuel economy.
my more crank prediction is a lot of their unmanned lunar research is part of a broad policy of looking for viable helium-3 sources.
My prediction is the Americans will nuke everyone out of spite rather than see a human future where capitalism has no more leverage once fusion is viable.
