It was in the news today, I’m told*. The LHC is circulating beams again!! This is exciting news indeed. Look out for a press conference on Monday, and here is a press release about the event that took place yesterday. Also, collisions are said to be going to happen next week! This is all very wonderful.
I’m mid-travel, and should be sleeping for an early start tomorrow, and so I’ll simply point over to Phil’s blog for some more links, a picture, this link to more pictures like the one I borrowed above left (Maximilien Brice; CERN Photo Service), and more thoughts.
Enjoy!

Hey I just saw you on a show about energy on the Hitlery channel! I thought, ‘hey I think I’ve visited that guy’s blog before!’ and sure enough, it was you. The beginning parts were horribly written, self-contradictory confusing crap, but all your parts were really great! I thought you were very clear and comprehensible. Very well done.
Hi,
I’m glad you liked it!
