International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER)

ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) is a global project aimed at developing a new type of nuclear fusion energy. Fusion, the process powering the sun, involves combining light atomic nuclei to release large amounts of energy. ITER is designing a massive reactor to recreate this process on Earth, using superhot plasma confined by powerful magnetic fields. The goal is to demonstrate that fusion can produce clean, safe, and virtually limitless electricity for future power plants. It involves international collaboration, bringing together scientists and engineers to advance sustainable energy technology beyond current capabilities.
