Damn, a future complete with tokamak power generation seemed so far off when playing SimCity 2000 as a kid. I had no idea the state of the art of was this far along. I guess there's no mention of the Q ratio here, or how much power was generated, so maybe I shouldn't get too excited yet. Still, just maintaining confinement without melting the reactor within seconds is an incredible feat of engineering.
