Chinese scientists have made a major breakthrough in clean energy by loading fresh fuel into a working molten salt thorium reactor.

They did this while the reactor continued to run, marking a major step forward in the global push to use thorium as a safer and more abundant alternative to uranium in nuclear energy.

The milestone was announced during a closed meeting on April 8 at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), where project leader Xu Hongjie shared the news with colleagues.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
