WELTREKORD BEI DER KERNFUSION! Deutschlands Reaktor Wendelstein 7-X schafft DIE SENSATION!

Nuclear fusion is considered one of the greatest hopes for the energy supply of the future – but how close are we really to a true fusion power plant? In this interview, I speak with Prof. Thomas Klinger from the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics about the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator, the current fusion record in Germany, and the major technical challenges on the path to stellar energy. We clarify why the plasma has to be heated to temperatures far exceeding those in the sun's core and why magnetic fields play such a crucial role. We also discuss what distinguishes stellarators from tokamaks, how safe nuclear fusion really is, and why Germany is a world leader in this field of research. 🚀SUBSCRIBE TO ASTRO-TIM FOR EVEN MORE SPACE KNOWLEDGE: @AstroTim 💜Want to use your own planet emojis and watch exclusive videos from me?
