So, remember last summer, about late August/early September when every nerdy science-type of guy was bugging out? They were either in fear or awe of what had been built below the French-Swiss-Italian frontier: the Large Hadron Collider, what was seemingly one of the greatest engineering and scientif ...

Hot damn. (Probably quite literally…) Bugorski, a 36-year-old researcher at the Institute for High Energy Physics in Protvino, was checking a piece of accelerator equipment that had malfunctioned – as had, apparently, the several safety mechanisms. Leaning over the piece of equipment, Bugorski stuck ...
