  - team are scientists from the Wendelsten 7-X stellarator plasma physics experiement
  - want to innovate on the two most impactful learnings from the experiment towards commercial fusion power, namely
  - using high temperatur superconductors in these weird shaped magnetic coils
  - 3D printing the water cooling vessels for the divertor
