🚨 #Energy 🇨🇳 China’s Ambitious Nuclear Fusion Facility: 50% Larger Than the US National Ignition Facility

China is ramping up its nuclear fusion research with the construction of a massive facility that is set to be 50% larger than the U.S. National Ignition Facility (NIF). Located in Mianyang, Sichuan province, this new complex mirrors the NIF's design with four laser bays and a central experimental bay. While the goal is to advance nuclear fusion for clean energy, the facility also has potential military applications, such as improving nuclear weapons technology without explosive tests. China’s growing investment in fusion research signifies a new chapter in the global race for energy breakthroughs. 

What could this mean for the future of both energy and security worldwide?
