France has been chosen to host a multibillion Euro experimental nuclear fusion reactor that’s designed to harness the power of the sun and the stars. France was the obvious choice for the panel after Japan withdrew its bid. The choice of France to host "ITER", the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, was announced this morning in a ceremony in Moscow. The project partners, The EU, The United States, Russia, Japan, South Korea, and China, were all present. France’s candidacy was backed by the EU, Russia and China, and Japan’s by the US and South Korea. Japan will construct and house the project’s main research facility and Japanese nationals will make up a fifth of jobs at the head office including ITER’s top post.
