Germany’s Proxima Fusion is developing Stellaris, a stellarator-based fusion power plant. It uses twisted magnetic fields to control superhot plasma, allowing atoms to fuse and release energy. The company aims to bring it online in the 2030s.

Germans naming their new tech after the galactic genocide game.

The weird thing about stellarators is that the harder machine to design may end up being the easier one to operate. If Proxima can really make steady-state fusion work without the disruption problem tokamaks face, that feels much closer to something you’d actually want running as a power plant.

Twisted magnetic fields, superhot plasma, atoms fusing… Gary is officially not fixing this one with a wrench. 🔧😄

Still waiting for useful output… and nothing.

Likely that nobody drew that shape. It came out of a computer search for a magnetic field that holds plasma (AI designs are everywhere these days). Proxima even published a dataset so AI models can generate new ones.

wenn in deutschland gesagt wird, es kommt 2030. dann kann ich euch garantieren es kommt nicht frueher als 2040 oder spaeter. Als Stuttgarter garantiere ich es euch.

The Germans really know how to turn people into media-hyped fools. We’ve already seen this with that trollish dwarf, von der Leyen. If you want to pull off a merger, you German morons, first get some fuel from UFOs or send a team to Pluto to give a presentation.

Still feels like sci-fi but it's actually being built.

It’s basic physics and a lot of scammed investors, we just wait until free energy arrives and don’t care where it comes from

@grok is nuclear fusion solved? Is it profitable? How much money has been spent developing nuclear fusion? Is it better than solar power?

😄😄😄 What AI is good for (tracking trajectory in real time) gave me 10 (?) years @ 1 kiloton -constant- thrust, to move a 'smaller' asteroid from the belt to Earth orbit, with the mass of the rock for fuel in a "Vortex Fusion" engine. Pay it now, or pay it later, "Ann's Ring":

looks like AI designed that in a simulation.

Actual real-time operation—specifically the stability of the material—will remain a challenge, as will, most importantly, the thermal management and continuous cooling system, albeit in a slightly different configuration.

すっごいでっかい融合炉を作ってるけどさ、AIの急速な進歩で全く新しい設計の融合炉が理論上の設計がされちゃって実物が完成する前に旧型って事になりそう

Hahahahahahahahahaa 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 by 2030 this reactor design will be so obsolete. All of these companies are building junk!!! You dont need this weird design to acomplish high beta aneutronic fusion. Tired of this stupid shit. Everyone is so amazed by garbage 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Researchers at Tokamak Energy have captured for the first time a real-time, high-speed video of plasma behaviour inside their ST40 spherical tokamak, tracking visible green and red light emissions as the fusion process occurs. This visual insight comes via a camera operating at thousands of frames per second, offering unprecedented detail of how the plasma evolves, interacts with the surrounding lithium blanket and outer regions, and ultimately radiates energy. The imaging enables scientists to observe how the ultra-hot core transitions outward into cooler zones, how magnetic confinement shapes the plasma behaviour, and how impurities or outer-region interactions influence the process. By giving a ‘star-in-a-donut’ view of fusion in action, this breakthrough adds a new diagnostic tool to the development of fusion energy, helping engineers refine the magnetic confinement, optimise plasma stability and better understand the heat and light flows at play. It was slowed down by 100x. All this was for 0.3s A tokamak is one of the most advanced devices ever created to achieve controlled nuclear fusion, the same process that powers the Sun. Its goal is simple in principle but incredibly challenging in practice: heat a gas until it becomes plasma, raise that plasma to over 100 million degrees, and confine it long enough for hydrogen nuclei to fuse and release energy. Because no material container can survive such temperatures, a tokamak uses powerful magnetic fields to hold and shape the plasma like an invisible cage. The device has a distinctive doughnut-shaped (toroidal) chamber surrounded by magnetic coils. When the machine is switched on, electric currents and external magnets work together to create helical magnetic fields that trap the plasma and keep it away from the walls. As the plasma spirals around these magnetic lines, it heats up dramatically. Additional heating comes from methods like radio-frequency waves and neutral-beam injection, pushing the plasma toward the extreme temperatures needed for fusion. Inside this tightly controlled environment, hydrogen isotopes such as deuterium and tritium can collide and fuse, releasing fast neutrons and a burst of energy. The goal of tokamak research is to reach a point where the fusion reactions produce more energy than the system consumes, a milestone known as “net energy gain.” Modern machines like ITER, JET, and Tokamak Energy’s ST40 are bringing this vision closer, using advanced diagnostics, superconducting magnets, and increasingly stable plasma control. 👉
