An insight into the vessel of the European fusion experiment JET. The Culham Centre for Fusion Energy (CCFE) in the United Kingdom hosts EUROfusion’s flagship experiment which is the largest using magnetic confinement. Work on JET has influenced the design of ITER – which will produce fusion power on the scale of a power plant starting operation in the mid 2020s. (Credit: EUROfusion CCBY 4.0)
