MOSCOW (AP) - A six-party consortium chose France as the site for an experimental nuclear fusion reactor, a spokeswoman for the European Union said Tuesday.

Antonia Mochan, spokeswoman for the European Commission's science and research committee, said the decision was made in Moscow at a closed-door meeting of the consortium.

The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor is intended to show that nuclear fusion, which harnesses the same energy that heats the sun to generate electricity, can wean the world off pollution-producing fossil fuels. Nuclear fusion produces no greenhouse gas emissions and only low levels of radioactive waste.

The project is funded by a consortium comprised of Japan, the United States, South Korea, Russia, China and the European Union, but the six parties had been divided over where to put the test reactor.

Competition was intense. At stake are billions of dollars worth of research funding, construction and engineering contracts, and the creation of up to 100,000 new jobs, according to estimates cited by Dow Jones NewsWires.

Japan, the United States and South Korea wanted the facility built at Rokkasho in northern Japan. Russia, China and the European Union wanted it at Cadarache, in southern France.

Site proposals for Canada and Spain had already been withdrawn.

The EU site in France had been seen as the front-runner, and Japanese newspaper reports had said Tokyo was prepared to give up hosting the $13 billion US, ITER project in return for a bigger research and operations role in the project.

Some scientists have warned that both sites are in seismically active zones and could be prone to earth tremors.




very cool

good question... I would assume it meant as low or lower than conventional nuclear power

Now only if they could do the same for auto fuel. Or create a soybean fuel that would replace gasoline without modification to current cars.

I'm sure the technology is there already should they choose to use it.

Nudity and sex aren't obscenities. Paying $2.50 for a gallon of Premium Fuel is obscene.

Between $4.20/gallon (eastern europe) and $6.30/gallon (wealthy europe)

So if it works, we have fusion.

If it doesn't, France blows up.

Win-win!!!

So if people don't like the French how do French Canadians fare? Do they suffer the same?

Americans have nothing against French-Canadians.

We leave any hostility towards them for the English-Canadians.

Speaking of above. this joke:

A Newfie, a Quebecois, and an Albertan were walking along the beach one day, when all of a sudden, they spy a genie's lamp partially buried in the sand. They rush to it and pick it up, carefully brushing the sand off the burnished metal.

All of a sudden, a pale bluish mist begins to erupt from the mouth of the lamp, coalescing into...a POWERFUL GENIE!

"I am the great and all-powerful Genie of the Lamp, and since you have freed me from my prison, I will grant you three wishes...hmm...hey wait, there's three of you, aren't there? Well, since I don't know which of you freed me, I'll tell you what. I'll give each one of you one wish each. Now, what is your wish??"

The Newfie steps forward and says "I'm a fisherman, my father was a fisherman, and my father's father was a fisherman. I want to make sure that my son will be a fisherman too, so I wish that the Grand Banks would be full of fish for all eternity!"

FOOM! The Genie grants his wish and the ocean is full of fish!

The Quebecois steps forward and says "My province's cultural identify is very important to me, and I want to protect it for all eternity. I wish that you would build a huge wall around all of Quebec so that nothing would ever get in or out!

FOOM! The Genie grants his wish and all of Quebec is completely surrounded and protected!

The Albertan steps forward and says, "Tell me more about this wall around Quebec."

The Genie replies, "It is completely impervious to any radio or television transmissions. It is made from indestructible magic stone that is 100 metres tall and 100 metres thick!!"

The Albertan says "I wish that you would fill it up with water!"

Only the French would put something like this within spitting distance of a really bloody beautiful area.

http://multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?lat=43....=2000000&icon=x

Although, as there's been a large influx of Brits to that region, perhaps they have their own reasons :-)

(The desolate wastelands known as North / East France would have been perfect).

Hehehe - one of my friends downloaded the interweb to a floppy last night. If you like I'll mail it to you :-))

I appear to be making a hash out of explaining things today and having good results at pissing people off :-(( It's probably best if I go talk to the wife for a while ;-)
