Why Would They Bulit A Magnet w/ 100T Magnetic Field ????

100T Magnetic Field. It’s 2 Million Times Earth’s Magnetic Field

The team of scientists and engineers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory surely have a reason to smile. They spent around 15 years trying to develop 100 Tesla magnetic field; roughly 2 million times more powerful than Earth’s own magnetic field. Calling this achievement a ‘moon shot’, Chuck Mielke, director of Pulsed Field Facility at Los Alamos said that there are higher magnetic fields produced elsewhere in the world; however the magnets used to create such high fields destruct themselves. The magnets created by the Los Alamos team are the first ones in the world designed to work non-destructively at 100T intensity on a regular basis. The team employed 100T pulsed multi-shot magnet which is a combination of 7 coil sets weighing approximately 18000 pounds. These coils are powered by a mega 1200 MJ generator (pic).

Well the simple answer is something like CERN.

Massive magnets/electro magnets used to keep plasma in the centre of the loop.

But...

Maybe they dropped their keys down a 100 metre sink hole.. :flop:

wtf's a... ‘moon shot’ ?

a saying ?... or a cryptic clue ?

Black Mesa all over again!
