- mmockett, on 05/04/2008, -3/+5OMG Black holez!
No, it'll be fine.- Rizzen, on 05/04/2008, -0/+4You will take your portal storm and like it mister.
- fr3ddie, on 05/04/2008, -1/+27amount of video i dont understand: 99.58%
amount of video i find very cool: 100%- semperfidoordi, on 05/04/2008, -0/+1lol, exactly what i was thinking
- mmockett, on 05/04/2008, -1/+4It's just like a big layer cake (that can replicate the beginning of the universe).
- Qays, on 05/04/2008, -1/+2wow that thing is huge!
- gingerbreadMan, on 05/04/2008, -0/+5...that's what she said
- rollerboy, on 05/04/2008, -7/+2Experiments > Theories
- michaeljd, on 05/04/2008, -0/+9Without theories there would be no experiments.
- MrSlumberjack, on 05/04/2008, -0/+1and theories would be nothing without experiments
- Diderotten, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
- michaeljd, on 05/04/2008, -0/+9Without theories there would be no experiments.
- xboxgamer91, on 05/04/2008, -1/+1ATLAS' octagonal look reminds me of the ARK Reactor in Iron Man.
- Tracon, on 05/04/2008, -1/+1Torus plasma reactors look a lot like that.

- ScorpionV, on 05/04/2008, -1/+2It amazes me how something so big is required to measure something so small...
- SonoranDragon, on 05/04/2008, -1/+3I like the video, but did anyone get the feeling they were watching something like those UAC videos from Doom 3?
- bj00rn, on 05/04/2008, -3/+2What a weird atmosphere they put in that video, it's like a sophisticated GTAIV in-game commercial.
- uriman, on 05/04/2008, -1/+1i cannot wait for the metal bikini. i wonder who will be wearing it this time.
- BadAstronomer, on 05/04/2008, -1/+11When I visited LHC and ATLAS, I took video of my own, too: http://www.badastronomy.com/bablog/2008/04/27/my-e ...
I give a tour of what you're seeing, and it's pretty amazing. I still can't believe I was standing int he middle of all that.- diabolicdiablo, on 05/05/2008, -0/+1Immensely complex. Fantastic times we live in.
- Rippleeffect, on 05/04/2008, -2/+1I'd love to see this level of dedication and engineering come to our space program. We should be back on the moon already and be on our way to mars.
- lamiaconfitor, on 05/04/2008, -1/+2+2 to science article skill!
cool, now Ive got to rest and distribute my quantum engineering points. - jamin, on 05/04/2008, -1/+4That's bad ass..
There are other parts to the video as well:

- Sapulator, on 05/04/2008, -1/+1And all this time we thought Switzerland was Neutral.....THEY'RE TRYING TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!!

- novenator, on 05/04/2008, -0/+2That was a very cool video, explaining things in fine detail with awesome animation. Plus, the soundtrack features some great classical hits!
- Midtowner, on 05/04/2008, -0/+3The animation depicts a female engineer.
I demand proof that there is such a thing as a female engineer.- OneLess, on 05/04/2008, -0/+1They are rare creatures, only captured in shaky videos and blurry photographs.
- Kazanoe, on 05/05/2008, -0/+2Legend tells that they are created solely for the sake of 'Male nurses'
