South Korean Physicists Create “Artificial Sun” To Get Clean Nuclear Energy

South Korean physicists created an "artificial sun" to get clean nuclear energy. By starting a powerful nuclear reaction, South Korean physicists have unearthed an artificial source of clean nuclear energy.

South Korean scientists have unearthed an artificial source of clean nuclear energy by commencing a powerful nuclear reaction with temperatures seven times greater than the Sun. According to a New York Post report, the discovery of creating an "artificial Sun" depicted a substantial advance in their research.

The Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) reactor managed to reach temperatures of more than 100 million degrees Celsius for approximately 30 seconds, achieving this landmark for the first time, according to researchers from Seoul National University and the Korea Institute of Fusion Energy, the outlet added.

On Friday, the Science Alert page posted a video of the KSTAR heating up to the extreme temperatures on YouTube.
