minus-squarePrincessLeiasCat@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoI have a basic understanding of CERN, but if it comes down to it, everything they do there still blows my mind. Like, imagine being the person who designed that experiment. “Here is a CERN. Find out how antimatter falls.” And some one/team was like ok I got this. And then they showed up one day & did it. “Down. It goes down.” I know it was much more complex than that, but still…imagine having the brain that stores the information required to do this. It’s so fucking cool.
minus-squarePeWu@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoIt amazes me that people have this much ability and brains to complete such things. Meanwhile look at me. sigh
minus-squareTavarin@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0arrow-down2·1 year agoIt is many, many people working together. No one person has this much ability or brains, only by working together do we make big modern scientific discoveries.
