It was founded over 68 years ago in 1954 with its stating "Science for peace."
Why did CERN shut down the Hadron Collider in 2019?
In 2019 the Hadron Collider at CERN was officially shut down.
The shutdown of the collider was to undergo maintenance and upgrades.
Due to the Covid pandemic that began in 2020, the reopening of the collider was continuously delayed.
What is the Large Hadron Collider?
The Large Hadron Collider was first opened in September 2008.
After three years of being shut down, it was reopened again.
The LHC is a vast ring of superconducting magnets set over 300 feet underground.
It was created in 2008 for historic scientific research.
CERN created the LHC as a mechanism to investigate the structure of atoms.
The scientific experiments that take place inside the LHC help scientists discover more about how the universe works.
