The Chinese scientists have almost achieved something that’s thought to be impossible. They have produced an artificial star that’s hotter than sun. Scientists at the Institute of Physical Science in Hefei have created a star like thing through nuclear fusion. This star has generated almost 50 million degrees of heat which is around 8000 times hotter than the surface of sun! Such a heat would generate enormous energy which was thought to be a great alternative for the bio-fuels that are limited. Ever since the invention of Nuclear power in 1940’s... scientists have been trying to explore ways to utilize the nuclear power for the purpose of energy. The energy obtained from such fusion reactors are safe, carbon free and unlimited when compared to other sources like petroleum. But.. will china share its success with the rest of the world!
