'Artificial Sun' Blazes Past 1,000 Seconds in New Fusion Record
While China hasn't shared a lot of detail about the conditions for this 1,066-second achievement, the researchers say their heating system has doubled in power through recent innovations – so it can now reach the equivalent of 140,000 microwave ovens being switched on at once.
