'''Contained Firing Facility (CFF)''' at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's Site 300 is an indoor testing facility where large-scale experiments involving high explosives are conducted in a controlled environment. These experiments help in understanding the dynamics of nuclear weapons components without the need for actual nuclear detonations, aiding in stockpile stewardship. | '''Contained Firing Facility (CFF)''' at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's Site 300 is an indoor testing facility where large-scale experiments involving high explosives are conducted in a controlled environment.
