Creating artificial suns may seem confusing to many people, but these are not like the Sun we see in the sky. They won’t be placed up there and won’t emit heat to reach us. Instead, they are produced in nuclear fusion reactors. To make these artificial suns, scientists need hydrogen and deuterium to react. This process is entirely environmentally friendly and has been studied for a long time. Recently, South Korean nuclear scientists achieved a remarkable feat by reaching a temperature of 100 million degrees Celsius, setting a world record. No other country has been able to achieve such a…

Many people around the world are affected by cognitive decline and dementia which can cause problems with thinking and memory.
