"With the magnet technology now successfully demonstrated, the MIT-CFS collaboration is on track to build the world's first fusion device that can create and confine a plasma that produces more energy than it consumes. That demonstration device, called SPARC, is targeted for completion in 2025."
"The use of the new high-temperature superconducting magnets makes it possible to apply decades of experimental knowledge gained from the operation of tokamak experiments... but scales everything down to about half the linear size"
"A series of scientific papers published last year outlined the physical basis and... showed that, if the magnets worked as expected, the whole fusion system should indeed produce net power output, for the first time in decades of fusion research."
