China’s ‘artificial sun’ sets 17-minute plasma record in fusion experiment

Listen to the article China has made significant progress in its quest for a new, cleaner source of energy by conducting a groundbreaking nuclear fusion experiment. The experimental advanced superconductor Tokamak (east), often referred to as China’s “artificial sun”, successfully maintained plasma for a record 1,000 seconds, or more than 17 minutes. This beats the previous record of 403 seconds set in 2023, marking a major step forward in Fusion Energy’s development. Nuclear fusion, the process that powers the sun, has long been considered the “Holy Grail” of energy production. Unlike nuclear fission, fusion involves the fusion of atomic nuclei

The US is swelling under the sun and sunscreen misinformation

Disdainfully tossing a tube of sunscreen over his shoulder, a nude TikTok influencer claims the cream causes cancer. Instead, he promotes “regular sun exposure” to his 400,000 followers—contrary to American dermatologists who are fighting the rise of dubious misinformation. According AFPamid a scorching summer, some social media influencers are offering potentially dangerous sun protection advice despite heightened warnings from health experts about overexposure amid rising skin cancer rates. Further undermining public health, videos – some garnering millions of views – share “homemade” recipes that use ingredients such as beef tallow, avocado butter and beeswax for what is claimed to provide

Sun unleashes powerful X-class solar flare, causes radio blackout in Asia-Pacific

The sun silenced critics of its recent inactivity with an explosive X-class flare, the most powerful category of solar flares, causing shortwave power outages across Australia, Southeast Asia and Japan. The flare, originating from sunspot AR3738, occurred late Saturday night at 10:34 p.m. EDT (0234 UT on July 14), as recorded by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory. Despite the intensity of the flare, it did not trigger a coronal mass ejection (CME) – a large ejection of plasma and magnetic field from the sun – dashing the hopes of aurora hunters.

Is the sun about to set on your solar energy saving dreams?

The hot Pakistani sun has millions of Pakistanis eager to take advantage of abundant solar power to balloon their electricity bills and become somewhat immune to load shedding. However, this “solar rush” is likely to lose its luster as a new debate heats up over how much credit solar panel owners should receive for their excess energy. Here’s what it means for consumers. Net metering, the current system, allows you to offset your electricity bill with this solar energy. But gross metering, a proposed change, would mean selling all your extra energy back to the grid, potentially for less than
