Amazing Science: CERN -- True Story!!
LHC- Large Hadron Collider
Here is the most expensive scientific Laboratory in the history of the world, C.E.R.N. - see website here:
C.E.R.N. Researching how the universe began
Scientists are accelerating and smashing atomic particles and this activity may give them information on how our universe evolved. There are almost 8,000 scientists and engineers representing 600 universities and 113 nationalities.
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) lies in a tunnel 600 feet under the ground and stretches in a circle 27 kilometres long (to Coldwater and back?)
And get this: it cost $9 billion! How is that for a story??!! -- non-fiction
What's even better is scientists are using SOCIAL MEDIA to teach about CERN and give updates. Follow them on twitter @CERN
What other social media are they using?
The power of social media for learning what you want.
