Some of the many cabinets of Fugaku.

A visitor gets his picture taken in front of Fugaku.

More cabinets of pure CPU power.

Professor Sato telling visitors about the Fugaku supercomputer.

There are a lot of cabinets... anyway if you were wondering what about 8 million compute cores looks like -- it looks like this. (ありがとうございます to Sato-sensei for showing us around)
