راکتور گرماهسته‌ای آزمایشی بین‌المللی

Also known as International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, I.T.E.R., The Way to New Energy

ITER (originally an acronym for International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, and also meaning "the way" or "the path" in Latin) is an international nuclear fusion research and engineering project designed to demonstrate the feasibility of fusion power. The facility is under construction near the Cadarache research center in southern France. ITER has been under construction since 2013. It is expected to achieve first plasma in 2033–2034, at which point it will be the world's largest fusion reactor, with a plasma volume about six times that of Japan's JT-60SA, previously the largest tokamak

AI overview

ITER is an international project building a massive nuclear fusion reactor in southern France that aims to prove fusion power can actually work as an energy source. When it starts operating in 2033–2034, it will be the world's largest fusion reactor and could represent a major breakthrough in developing clean, virtually unlimited energy.
