The US is building the 2 machines to ensure the country has enough #supercomputers to run increasingly complex experiments that require harnessing enormous amounts of data-crunching capability. The machines can accelerate the process of making scientific discoveries in areas the US is focused on.

#Energy Secy Wright said the systems would "supercharge" advances in #NuclearPower & #fusion energy, #technologies for #defense & #NationalSecurity, & the development of #drugs.

Scientists & companies are trying to replicate fusion, the reaction that fuels the sun, by jamming light atoms in a plasma gas under intense heat & pressure to release massive amounts of energy.
