What's the status of EMC2's facilities? When Dr Bussard had to shut down a few years ago, it sounded like they vacated the premises. Unless I'm reading things wrong, EMC2 at this point is still paying their rent & keeping the lights on.

I know, idle chatter still, but reason to be optimistic.

Not sure why you would come to that conclusion. All the equipment was moved to SpaceDev (?).

sd,

That was before the current contract. Nebel works there now.

I know he discussed the possibility of licensing/manufacturing WB-7 for university or other research as a way to generate some cash flow for EMC2. So I'd say it's still a going concern at the moment.

Hopefully they're busily working on WB-100 design proposals.
