ITER, a collaboration of 35 nations, is a scientific experiment which entails
building the world's largest tokamak (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokamak) in order to help prove the viability of
nuclear fusion power generation.

Big E Engineering to say the least, it is one of the most complex tasks
ever undertaken.

Assembled in southern France from components from around the world,
construction is said to be now 78% complete.

Thanks Gary. Incredible project. Must be the most complex project and a device of the closest tolerances of that size ever built.
