    Could is doing a lot of work in that sentence.

    The LHC was expected to do the same.

      Yeah I’m just not sure how much I believe this thing is worth the investment at all and the fact that it’s 100km just proves these guys were like “uhhh, let’s make it BIG NUMBER KM LONG.”

      I think there’s likely quite a lot of other worthier expenditures in science research than this indulgent toy.
