 According to the developers, as cited by Chinese media,
 the HH70 tokamak is smaller and cheaper to assemble than its
 predecessors.
 The device uses a magnetic system made from high-temperature
 superconducting material,
 commonly known as REBCO (Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide).
 
 It can reportedly be manufactured on a large scale,
 reducing the cost of Energy Singularity’s tokamaks.
 Moreover, the HH70 device, according to the company,
 is only 2% the size of conventional tokamaks  – providing a major
 advantage in the race to produce a commercially viable device.

Well that's it for ITER then!

I said it 40 years ago and I'll say it again: China is the *real* danger
to world peace, not Russia.
