Almost 1 a.m. and I have to sleep. Pause the movie with anticipation for starting it up again. The story of the largest machine ever built by humans to create an experiment to either validate or refute physicist theories on the creation of the universe and what holds matter together. Breathtaking. All of it. The machine, the minds, the questions, the possible answers, the passion. The internet was created during the beginnings of this so that thousands of computers all over the world could analyze the data from the collision.My mind is expanded and imploded simultaneously. I have no more words. The words of theorist Savas Dimopoulos, "jumping from one failure to another with undiminished enthusiasm, is the big secret of success."
