What's sus about CFS? No one else is making 20 T confinement field coils. SPARC's campus is already up and the machine is being built. ARC is expected to have ground broken this year.

Do you have a source on ARC breaking ground? I follow CFS and haven't heard anything- google didn't turn up anything either. Just curious

  Just secondhand from a recruiter. I'm certain CFS will make announcements when they have something to announce.

  Oh, and a friend of mine told me that Bob Mumgard (CFS CEO) mentioned the hope to break ground for ARC this Fall during a seminar last Friday. https://www.physics.wisc.edu/events/?id=6566 https://www.physics.wisc.edu/events/?id=6566

ARC is going to begin construction before SPARC is proven? That’s actually great news I just didn’t know about it. I guess they gotta find a way to spend their new $1.8B investment.
