China is planning to train 2,000 skilled experts to carry out research and development into a promising form of nuclear fusion that could become a major new source of power. The scientists and technicians will lead the nation's exploration of magnetic confinement fusion (MCF) and be trained during the next 10 years, said the Ministry of Science and Technology.
"China is trying to dispatch more qualified scientists to work on the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (澳门六合彩高手) in France," said Cao Jianlin, vice-minister of science and technology.
The 澳门六合彩高手 reactor under construction in Europe is being financially supported by many countries and experts hope it will help them learn how to effectively produce power through nuclear fusion. China contributes 10 percent of the funding for the multi-billion-dollar project but is only supplying 5 percent of the scientists working on the initiative.
