There is a bit of Oxfordshire that, every now and then, is the hottest place in the solar system. And yesterday, it was announced that the exhaust gases from this location — Britain’s main nuclear fusion experiment — can be made cool enough that they will not destroy everything they touch.

Scientists believe they have made a significant advance towards near-limitless clean electricity by showing they can dissipate the heat of waste plasma — in theory allowing smaller, cheaper and more efficient nuclear fusion devices to be made.
