No, you are talking about CERN. It is like our Fermilab, only the new rig will be an order of magnitude more powerful (and we pitched in half a billion to help CERN.) You can thank the Democrats for killing the superconducting collider in TX. Had that been built we would have been there awhile ago. Look for Europeans to take all of the Noble prizes in High Energy Physics for the next 12 years or so. We are likely to not be a leader in this field pretty soon.

This is not a fusion project, as far as I know.

There will be a good amount of R&D in nuclear tech though, mainly because of NASA's new mandate. Can't cover all the bases anymore.
