Superconducting Super Collider (SSC)
A massive ring particle accelerator that was planned to be built by the U.S. government near Waxahachie, Texas.

Due to concern over the high cost of the project, it was eventually canceled by Congress in 1993 after 22.5 kilometers (14 miles) of its tunnel had already been excavated and $2 billion was spent (wasted).
