That is true, but FASER is not expensive and its low cost and rapid construction schedule are made possible by re-use of hardware from other experiments.

More information on FASER can be seen of the web page of Jonathan Feng http://www.ps.uci.edu/~jlf/

That was my first thought, reading this.

A million here and a million there and you’re still not going to have enough to buy dinners for all the physicists on the project.
