LHC Lives Again!

The Symmetry blog reports that a few hours ago, CERN circulated protons around the Large Hadron Collider.

This cheerful news marks a milestone in a long recovery from the accident of 19 September 2008. Congratulations to all those involved. May the journey of commissioning be smooth and speedy.

I am always amused when I come across the acronym CERN because, in French, when you have worked too hard, you wind up with 'cernes autour des yeux' or 'circles around the eyes'.

Those wacky Frencies.
