Either thats a really old post or its just bullshit. We have had colored fusion reactor video footage for a decade, probably more.

This is even in slow motion, very pretty https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhHsOwLdCu4

My pet peeve is relative timestamps

Slow motion? But in the title says high speed...

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The camera is high speed (up to 20000fps according to the video description) and is being played back in slow motion.

What is the pulsing near the base, does anyone know?

The firefly bits? Probably part of the reactor wall getting knocked off and vaporizing.
