Science doesn't get much bigger or more exciting than this.

Particle physics research involves the biggest, most complicated experiments in the history of science, with the fastest computers, the coldest temperatures and the strongest magnets on Earth.

Particle physics re-creates the Universe just after the Big Bang and hopes to answer the questions humans have been asking for eternity;

Where do we come from?

What are we made of?
