After construction of the experimental reactor started in 2018, most of the scientists involved in the project abandoned their holidays – they worked day and night, and some stayed on site for more than 300 days in a year.

That's not ideal

Not that I'd ever support throwing your work-life balance into the meatgrinder like that, but if I had a job trying to create one of the best potential options for long-term power production while the world was setting itself on fire from fossil fuels I might consider 50 hour work weeks for a bit too.

Yep. I'd do it in a heartbeat. These folks are heroes.
