a complex shape like this is what's needed to contain plasma within a magnetic field

tell me how you keep the plasma from escaping just from whatever's in the handle?

and why aren't nearby metallic objects affected?

World's largest stellerator will turn on in less than 24 hours.

LHC let us down with no catastrophic failures. This thing is our only hope

The complex shape and arrangement of the superconducting magnetic coils was designed by a supercomputer allowing it to confine the plasma indefinitely unlike tokamaks.
