US-built fusion reactor structure delivered for 60-ft-tall ITER magnet

Fusion is inching closer to reality with continuous development in this field as the United States Domestic Agency for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) recently completed the delivery of critical components for the support structure of central solenoid.

Described as an exoskeleton, or a cage, the support structure surrounds the central solenoid, which is a 60-foot-tall superconducting magnet at the heart of the ITER fusion machine.
