10 September 2008: The Large Hadron Collider ( #LHC ) at #CERN was powered up for the first time. #History #Science

The #LargeHadronCollider, built by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (#CERN), was first powered up on #ThisDayInHistory in 2008. The world's largest #ParticleAccelerator, it lies up to 574 feet deep and runs 17 miles in circumference, and took ten years to build.
Nine days later, a fault damaged 53 magnets and shut it down for more than a year.
Four years later?
It helped discover the Higgs boson.

Today in History: Sept 10, 2008 – #TheLargeHadronCollider at #CERN, described as the biggest scientific experiment in history, is powered up in #Geneva, #Switzerland.
Най-ценното нещо, което взех от ЦЕРН, не беше физиката.
Беше начинът да мисля, когато нямам достатъчно информация. Как да отсея истината от хаоса.
За това, за науката, engineering-а и пътя от ЦЕРН до IT си говорихме в новия DEV.BG podcast 🎙️

Is it possible that scientific experiments at #CERN, which operates the world's largest particle physics lab, is paving the way for a breach that allows interdimensional beings to manifest? @PastorBegley @HumanixBooks amzn.to/3V1tNgU #ad #StevosNovelIdeas #booksky
