Researchers in South Korea were able to keep a nuclear fusion reaction going for 30 seconds at temperatures beyond 100 million degrees Celsius, which is approximately seven times hotter than the Sun's core. 

A company has become the first private entity to hit the blistering temperature required for fusion on earth, many times hotter than the hearts of stars.

Generating Energy From Nuclear Fusion Reactor Sets Record by Scientists British scientists announced on Wednesday, Feb. 9, that they had set a new record for fusion power, a potential future source of near-limitless clean energy.

This latest breakthrough in the race for almost limitless clean power shows fusion energy is "no longer just a dream of the far future" one nuclear materials expert said.

A social post said "Apparently China launched its ‘Artificial Sun’ into space." No, it wasn’t footage of China launching a fake sun into space

The country has now constructed an artificial moon facility that will simulate lunar conditions.

The mini-moon is about two feet in diameter and the artificial surface has been made with rocks and dust.

Nothing is hotter than the sun, except China's artificial sun.

China's "artificial sun" is located in China, not space.

China state media reported that their nuclear fusion reactor reached temperatures five times hotter than the Sun! This artificial Sun brings researchers one step closer to near-unlimited clean energy.
