For decades, humanity has looked to the stars with a singular, audacious goal: to capture the very process that powers the universe and bottle it here on Earth. This documentary explores the monumental engineering and global cooperation behind nuclear fusion, centered on the $22 billion ITER project and the ground-breaking research at JET. From creating temperatures five times hotter than the center of the sun to constructing the world's largest refrigeration system at absolute zero, we go inside the most complex technological jigsaw ever attempted.
Welcome to Progress - the home of engineering marvels, space exploration and history's greatest inventions. From rockets that took us to the stars to the world's most advanced military vessels, we'll be bringing you world-class documentaries every week.
