We have enough empty flatlands to lay down a gigantic collider
It would obviously be a Swiss project since the French will surrender their land once we sternly look in their direction.
I want to work there!!
Remember Decay?
when I said we have lots of empty flatlands, I was referring to the US. Bigger is better.
Every fantastic discovery may, in fact, be a disaster. The alternative is riding a blind into a dead-end. We need to know to get mankind out of this endless cycle of build a little destroy a lot. There are too many people competing for dwindling resources.
What if the next big discovery allows us to generate a megawatt of energy from a 9v battery? Allows us to extract more more than we expended to generate it? Or some how counteract gravity?
There're too many possibilities to just stop looking.
Heck, yeah! We have enough empty flatlands to lay down a gigantic collider! I want one! I want to work there!!
