The worlds largest super collider nears completion
100m below the French-Swiss border, and more than 17 miles long, sits the latest and most powerful in a long line of machines aimed at uncovering the fundamental building blocks of the Universe. Due for completion in 2007, the LHC (Large Hardron Collider) , when switched on, will collide beams of protons that would fit comfortably inside the zero on a penny and yet carry as much energy as an aircraft carrier travelling at 30mph.
