K-STAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Experiment)

K-STAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) is a cutting-edge experimental device designed to study nuclear fusion, the process that powers the sun. It uses powerful magnetic fields generated by superconducting magnets to contain and control super-hot plasma—hotter than the Sun's surface—where fusion reactions occur. The goal is to develop a sustainable, clean, and virtually limitless energy source. K-STAR helps scientists understand plasma behavior and improve fusion technology, paving the way for future fusion power plants that could provide safe, abundant energy for the world.
