CERN‘s collider chronicle unfurls the Future Circular Collider (FCC) blueprint on March 31, 2025—a 91-kilometer leviathan triple the LHC’s girth, probing Higgs hordes at 100 TeV to unravel dark universe veils, per the feasibility tome that greenlights construction viability sans funding fiat, eyeing 2040 online amid 35 nations’ $25 billion LHC successor. The subterranean loop—200 meters deep along French-Swiss rim and Lake Geneva’s bed—smashes electrons/protons in e+e- prelude, birthing Q=10 energy gain by 2035, per IAEA’s October 30 Chengdu plenary where Stefan Jachmich’s pellet injections tame 95% disruptions for 1,000-second plasmas at 150 million°C.
High-Luminosity LHC’s 2030 luminosity x10—10^35 cm−2s−1—bridges to FCC’s hadron phase, EUROfusion’s €1.2 billion Euratom fueling DEMO’s 2050 baseload sans fission waste (F4E’s vacuum vessel welds 99.9% integrity). China’s HL-3 mirrors toroidal fields at 13 teslas, JT-60SA’s long-pulses back 2025 first-plasma—delayed from 2023—yet on track for D-T ops 2035 (IAEA World Fusion Outlook). MATHUSLA’s April 9 upgrade snags long-lived exotics, opening Standard Model fissures.
Ethical embers: $65 billion USDOE tallies meet spending targets under Barabaschi’s 2024 reshuffle, tech transfers—10,000 EUR prizes—spin cryogenics into med-materials. Projections: Q>1 by 2032 (Monocle’s April), eclipsing NIF’s 2021 ignition; EU DMA probes at 71% reversal (SCOTUSblog).
Global gambit: BRICS’ 22% reserves shift counters U.S. CHIPS $52 billion, yet farmer furors—5 hectares devoured—stir French-Swiss rows (AFP dairy dissent). Yet the symphony sings: 10 billion carbon-free by 2050, sans doomsday black holes.
This model unveils not beam’s blaze, but particle’s durable dance—veiled veils of 91km from Higgs’s horde, where physics’s artistry yields reinvention’s radius in CERN‘s majestic march.
