Original: NSF advances plan to build world’s most powerful laser

The US National Science Foundation is moving forward with a plan to build the world's most powerful laser, according to a report from UC Irvine. The facility would push the frontiers of high-intensity laser science, enabling experiments in fundamental physics and related fields that current instruments cannot reach. Researchers say the project would strengthen US leadership in an area where large-scale laser facilities are increasingly strategic scientific infrastructure.

Why now: News of a major new national science facility advancing toward construction is drawing attention from the physics research community.
