Fusion Reactor Spits Out First Hydrogen Plasma
Is it hot in here, or is it just Germany’s Wendelstein 7-X stellar fusion device?
Yeah, it’s the Wendelstein. Scientists at Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) this week fired up the experimental nuclear fusion reactor to a temperature of 80 million degrees Celsius. That’s correct: 80 million degrees. As a result, the facility generated its first batch of hydrogen plasma.

I have a saying, which I’m going to change slightly here to read.
“What you can do with a proton, you can’t do with a cow”
Both a proton and a cow are “matter” and so in theory everything you can do with one you can do with the other.
This Wendelstein experiment in which protons are heated to 80 million degrees is an example. So is the LHC where protons are accelerated to 0.999999991 c. When scientists talk about the possibility of matter passing through wormholes or travelling backwards in time they are talking about protons (or electrons) not cows.
You can’t accelerate a cow to 0.999999991 c, or heat it to 80 million degrees, or pass it through a wormhole or send it back through time, or get a diffraction pattern of a cow by passing it simultaneously through two slits, or use spooky action at a distance to transport a cow through space.
