- We *do* have working tokamaks — we simply don’t have ones that are producing more energy than is used to maintain the reaction taking place inside yet.
- It appears you misunderstood the article. Her aim was never to have “tokamak-powered” engines, but to have a new type of ion thrusters producing a plasma similar to that which she saw within a functioning tokamak. I will say that if my explanation led you to make the wrong conclusion, then that is because of my own shortcomings as a writer, and for that I must apologize.
- That being said, the main purpose of the article was to discuss not the science, but immigration and the folly of rejecting out-of-hand those who look/speak/worship differently from ourselves.
