Mike at CERN
Update: It’s airing again, this time on The History Channel, see below for more…
A little while ago Lorraine sent out an email about the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, where Mike works. There was a special on the Discover Channel about it. For those of you who missed it there are a number of YouTube videos on it (see below). For a quick overview on what it is that Mikey does over in Geneva, check out the BBC podcast video below.
