CMB-S4 Achieves DOE Critical Design 0 on July 26, 2019
July 28, 2019
We are delighted to report that DOE approved CD-0 for CMB-S4. This is a very significant milestone for us, made possible by the enormous effort of the CMB community ever since CMB-S4 was first conceived back in 2013.

We look forward to advancing the science case and moving CMB-S4 forward on the path to DOE CD-1 and NSF PDR, anticipated in 2021.

Congratulations to CMB-S4 collaboration!

John, Julian and Jim
