Seems like an important and potentially lucrative project but I'm a bit worried about its future - what happens after Brexit?
It's lead by a British team, but many of the components are made on the continent, and it looks like half the funding came from the EU...
- rossdavidh 8y agoWell there was a South African university involved in the consortium, so EU membership was not apparently mandatory for this. But regardless, as long as the results of the experiment are available, then both the EU and the UK (and perhaps other friendly governments such as Japan, U.S., etc.) could benefit from the knowledge gained.
- marsokod 8y agoEU membership played a key role in this project though. The consortium would not have had the same funding from the European Commission if the UK was outside EU.
