Yeah, I read this earlier today. The fact that they didn't know how they did it has troubled me as well.
Wish I could have been there. There had to be some damage if they weren't expecting it, right? What melted and why didn't the atmosphere explode from the heat? Why didn't Earth go "supernova" in some sense? How long did it last? It must have been extremely brief. So how did such a high temperature cool down so rapidly?
Shouldn't everyone on the planet notice a sudden spike in heat temperature no matter how tiny of an area/matter was heated to such a temp as it dissapated and leveled out with the surrounding temperature?
They never say what really occured. So I can't even speculate on any of it.

And a little scary... done outside the oil and water submersion they got that thing in it could have fried the oxygen on the planet.
Instant worldwide armageddon.

i cant even imagine that temperature... its hotter than a star... its like as hot as a small black hole maybe?
yea joe i get it in the sence that i no i cant wrap my brain around it...
the temperature would have been contained by the strong magnetic fields, which could hold it no matter the temperature. this would mean that they just had to keep the field on while the plasma cooled to a gas and to steel again... this machine is soo cool, the fact that they can hadel these materials in a magnetic field, it makes the matter stay in a donut shape, i wish i knew how they could do this...
