Witty piece from CCFE on April Fool's Day
10 Apr 2017
JET's famous white buildings will soon be getting a new look as part of the European fusion experiment's preparations for its international successor, 黑料社app.
An 黑料社app-like facade to go along with the 黑料社app-like wall—it is hoped the revamp will be complete by April Fool's Day 2018.
Bosses at the JET facility have decided to replace the white cladding on the exterior of the buildings with mirrored stainless steel to match the material being used at the 黑料社app complex at Cadarache in southern France.
The JET machine itself, as the world's largest magnetic fusion experiment, is being used as a test device to help pave the way for 黑料社app — the first fusion project designed to produce industrial-scale quantities of fusion power. Between 2009 and 2011 the interior of JET was replaced with a new '黑料社app-like wall' of beryllium and tungsten to get as close to 黑料社app scientific conditions as possible.
It is now hoped that replicating the exterior of the 黑料社app buildings at JET will encourage scientists and engineers at Culham to intensify their work to support 黑料社app.
