The Large Hadron Collider
Everything Everywhere Daily - A podcast by Gary Arndt | Glassbox Media
Straddling the border of Switzerland and France is the largest scientific instrument ever created. It sits in a tunnel 27 kilometers or 17 miles long, at points, it rests 175 meters or 574 feet below the surface, and it cost a whopping €7.5 billion. It consists of thousands of powerful magnets and a vacuum chamber and uses a great deal of energy. With it we can probe the secrets of the basic particles that make up the universe.
