A full superconducting experimental tokamak fusion device, nicknamed "Artificial Sun", successfully finished the first engineering adjustment in Hefei, capital of east China's Anhui Province, March 23, 2006. The device, undertaken by the Hefei-based Institute of Plasma Physics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, was aimed to generate infinite, clean nuclear-fusion-based energy, and China is the first country in the world to design and develop such an equipment on its own.
