Summary:

Given the projected cost and complexity of the superconducting super collider (SSC), questions arise as to its scientific merit, its impact on other areas of science, and its economic and social costs and benefits. The basic issue is whether Congress wishes to authorize construction of the SSC at this time, as proposed by the Administration.
