Happy Big Bang Day!

Today, physicists in Switzerland and France started up the Large Hadron Collider, a 27km ring designed to see what the universe was like billionths of a second after the Big Bang. If you want more information, check out this stuff from the BBC (UK) or the New York Times.

Also, check out the "Large Hadron Rap" done by physicists with obviously too much time on their hands.
