5 statements about ITER, every show

GREEN BLUEPRINT Assertion Contradicted
Needham: ITER is Europe's largest construction project
“Eater is the largest construction project in all of Europe.”
Rick Needham Jun 18, 2025 ▶ 14:32 The tape that led to a fusion breakthrough
GREEN BLUEPRINT Assertion Not checkable as stated
Needham: SPARK's core plasma physics are not much different than ITER
“The physics inside the machine are not much different than Eater, which has been studied ad nauseum, right?”
Rick Needham Jun 18, 2025 ▶ 23:55 The tape that led to a fusion breakthrough
ALL-IN Prediction Didn’t hold up
Friedberg: Europe's $30B ITER fusion system will be online by 2030
“And by the way, the biggest funding is happening in ITER, which is the largest construction project in Europe. And this is a thirty billion dollar Production-scale fusion demonstration system that should be online by the end of the twenty-twenties.”
David Friedberg Dec 16, 2022 ▶ 40:18 E108: Doxing debate, Nuclear fusion breakthrough, state of the markets & more
CATALYST Opinion
Hsu: New superconductors enable major fusion milestones at smaller, cheaper scales
“What took Something, say, the size of ITER to reach the next major milestone in fusion, people think can be done now with much smaller sized systems and much lower cost systems.”
Dr. Scott Hsu Dec 23, 2021 ▶ 12:46 Is nuclear fusion getting close?
CATALYST Prediction Didn’t hold up
Hsu predicts the ITER fusion project will achieve first plasma by 2026
“First plasma on Eater is expected in, hopefully, within a few years, twenty-twenty-five, twenty-twenty-six timeframe.”
Dr. Scott Hsu Dec 23, 2021 ▶ 14:00 Is nuclear fusion getting close?
