>Theoretical physicist and Nobel Laureate Steven Weinberg had this to say on [the SSC's] cancellation: >>Spending for the Superconducting Super Collider had become a target for a new class of congressmen elected in 1992. They were eager to show that they could cut what they saw as Texas pork, and they didn’t feel that much was at stake. The cold war was over, and discoveries at the SSC were not going to produce anything of immediate practical importance. https://redsails.org/concessions/#education-and-research-its... |
