UWST Assembly Budget Proposal Briefing Draft (Version 8)

...Times are now different. Breakthroughs in material science and anti-Blight interference technology achieved by Civilization Band scientists during the last decade mean that scanning, containing, and eliminating Blight masses in the field is no longer science fiction.

We are now capable of locating a Blight patch's "origin of contact" and neutralizing it like untangling a ball of yarn. Although the exact form of the Blight scanner platform as well as the deployment and applicable scenarios thereof have yet to be determined, any technology that enables immediate, on-site control of the Blight is highly promising. It is a goal worth realizing.
