Intro
Come and discover the largest particle physics laboratory in the world.
Explore the questions of contemporary physics that CERN physicists are trying to answer. Everything in the universe is made of particles. But where do they come from?
A metaphor for the terrestrial globe, the Globe of Science and Innovation - 27 m high and 40 m in diameter - is intended to serve as a forum for encounters and exchanges between science and society, in the fields of particle physics, cutting-edge technologies and their applications in everyday life. The exhibition aims to bring physics within everyone's reach, projecting visitors between the infinitely small and the infinitely large. It brings them up close to the huge detectors that explore the tiny components of matter, and takes them on a journey of discovery into the mysteries of the universe, tackling concepts such as time, the vacuum, antimatter, cosmic rays and more.
Visits to the heart of the experiments are also possible, to find out how physicists work (booking essential).
