Questions for Dr. Nebel

Greetings Dr. Nebel,

I suspect you are sensing the frustration building in the community from a complete lack of information from the review panel. For me it is due to the inability to even consider planning to generate alternative funding.

I am pretty sure that if there is a non-zero chance to make this work, there will be important research that needs to be funded outside of building what folks have dubbed WB-100. I have several ideas for such funding, but I don’t want to waste my time if this is going to be yet another fizzle. SO…

1. What do you think is the probability that the RP will find this technology to be a bust?
2. What do you think is the probability that the Navy will jump straight to funding WB-100?
