Wow, that is amazing. Thats not much more than the Large Hadron Collider.
Though to be honest I would put the figure a lot higher than that, I'd multiply it by two because it seems American made projects end up costing twice as much as proposed and multiply it by two again because we've never built anything like it. But still, at that low cost there is a possibility I can see it done in my lifetime.
