In this photo provided by Sandia National Laboratories, a technician inspects cathode inductive voltage adder cells used in the Scorpius Injector being assembled at Sandia National Labs, June 8, 2023, in Albuquerque, N.M. Unable to physically validate the effectiveness and reliability of nuclear warheads since a 1992 underground test ban, the $1.8 billion Scorpius will allow experts to conduct subcritical experiments as early as 2027 in the atomic equivalent of a wind tunnel built for aircraft prohibited from flying.
