The nerdy new exhibit at the ArtScience Museum is its most exciting one yet
Have a look at the Large Hadron Supercollider and find out all about the God Particle.
We always like the exhibitions at the ArtScience Museum: the Annie Leibovitz retrospective last year, the recent Deep Sea show, and a bunch of stuff in between. But this might be the most exciting one yet. Come Nov 14, the Marina Bay museum will present an interactive, multi-sensory exhibition all about the Large Hadron Supercollider at CERN.
Why should you care? In case you didn't know, the LHC is that slightly creepy-sounding 27km underground contraption in Switzerland that has been smashing subatomic particles together for a few years. First, people thought it would kill us all in a giant black hole. Then people thought it would give us answers to the origins of the universe. The end result (so far at least) was the confirmation last year of the Higgs Boson, the so-called God Particle that gives things mass (something like that, don't quote us, but there was a Nobel Prize involved).
The exhibition promises a look into how research is done, interviews with scientists and some pretty stunning photos. Admission costs $15 for a standard ticket, while Singapore residents pay $10.
