Superconducting Physics Experiments Cursed |
Today's Science Times has an article about the cancellation of The Alpha
Magnetic Spectrometer, a astrophysical particle detector made with
superconducting magnets, and intended to fly on the Space Station. The sad
thing is that the equipment is completely finished and waiting for an
opportunity to fly.
This is the third cancelled big science experiment, made with
superconducting magnets. First there was MFTF-B, the mirror fusion
machine, then there was the Superconducting Super-Collider, and now this.
There seems to be a curse on experiments with charged particles and
superconducting magnets.

International Space Station Freedom FUBAR Space Hole One Alpha solely
exists to justify the Space Scuttle. The Space Scuttle solely exists
to supply ISS FUBAR. Think of the pair as a severely contracted
Princess Eugenie's circle with a very muddy parade ground. An
operative geometry is left as an exercise for the interested reader.
Any research attempted by either is cause for
discharge/insubordination. NASA output is so loathsome that refereed
journals reject it out of hand. NASA started its own research
journals. If you want to know all about storing samples of frozen
human feces in duplicate, NASA is your *****.

Actually the problem is lack of commitment to scientific funding.

I was observing that said Lack of Commitment falls disproportionately
onto expriments with SC magnets and charged particles. ;( I used to be
in fusion, you see, and someday I may be again.

And how the %$#@ did my Agent Smith sock puppet get attached to that

Kurt Stocklmeir, a "regular loon" in sci.physics. You see, God talks
to him and there are curses on physics because it's done by boys and
girls with the boold of animals between their teeth.
IANMTU- Google for him, but for your monitor's sake first put down
the beverages.

At first, I enjoyed such "characters," but that soon became tiresome,
and now I immediately plonk them. I'm unhappy with XNews, because its
"ignore thread" command doesn't work. I don't understand why guys like
Stocklmeir aren't plonked out of existence, by the serious discussers of
physics. They may be amusing, but they contaminate the bandwidth of
legitimate discussions, in groups like this.
