The new facility will help meet the current national shortfall of testing capacity for advanced microelectronics, including those used for commercial spaceflight, 5/6G wireless technology and autonomous vehicles, according to MSU.
The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams was designed to help scientists answer fundamental questions about the formation of the elements, the structure of matter, how stars and born and how they die. It took 13 years to design and build and cost $730 million.
