One
month ago, New Energy Times published an investigation
about the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor
(ITER). The ITER project, under construction in southern France,
is the largest and most expensive science experiment on Earth
today. Its cost is second only to that of the International
Space Station.
New Energy Times revealed how managers of the ITER project have, for years, been using false and misleading language to deceive the public and legislators about the promised performance of the ITER fusion reactor. The project managers had claimed that, when complete, the fusion reactor would produce 500 megawatts of net power. In fact, according to its design, it won't produce any net power. At a price tag of $22 billion, it is a hoax of nuclear proportion.
Yesterday, New Energy Times reported that the ITER organization, without making any announcement, had corrected most of the false and misleading statements on its Web site. There are repercussions not only for ITER, but every nuclear fusion research project in the world.
