User ID: 24118278 United States 10/26/2012 04:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | EU to build 700-million euro lasers to zap nuclear waste, cure cancer The EU is to spend €700 million to build the world’s most powerful lasers, in Romania, the Czech Republic and Hungary. The technology may be used to destroy nuclear waste and provide new cancer treatments. The lasers are ten times more powerful than any yet built, and will be strong enough to create subatomic particles in a vacuum, similar to the conditions that may have followed the start of the universe. Scientists are hopeful that the lasers could be used to deteriorate the radioactivity of nuclear waste – some of which takes thousands of years to decay – in just a few seconds; they also hope to use them to target tumors. Experimentation with such a powerful laser could significantly expand knowledge in nanoscience and molecular biology. Called the Extreme Light Infrastructure project, two lasers will be built in the Czech Republic and Romania, with a third in Hungary, each specializing in a different area of research. The project will culminate in the development of a new fourth laser in a yet-undecided location, which is expected to have twice the power of the initial three. The project's Romanian coordinator, Nicolae-Victor Zamfir, told Bloomberg in an interview, “We can’t find in nature any phenomenon with such an intense power like the one that will be generated with this laser.” [ link to rt.com] |

I think the Theory behind is interesting and 700.000.000 Euro is only a bit of Money compared to the Billions we spend for Nuclear Energy! But i hope that the Nuclear Complex spend some Money too!!! Only with new Science we get a small chance to survive, no Science- no Life! G.Y.!B.E. |
