#Microcosm web cern series#
Microcosm exhibitions have progressed over the years through a series of revamps, becoming more interactive. For 32 years, CERN’s first permanent on-site exhibition has been a window onto our Laboratory, close to its heart, reflecting our community’s desire to share the CERN story and to inspire future generations of scientists. We look forward to welcoming you in person. On 18 September, Microcosm will permanently close its doors. Have a look at our Mannequin challenge video showing you parts of Microcosm. The exhibition welcomes visitors of all ages, although it is best enjoyed by ages 14+. All spaces are wheelchair accessible and mobile seating is available upon request. Accompanying audio material can be downloaded via QR codes. On 18 September, Microcosm will permanently close its doors. Learn about the technical challenges and find out how ingenious engineering can create solutions that evolve into innovative technologies for the benefit of everyone.įour areas of Microcosm feature exhibits specially designed for visually impaired visitors. Take a selfie in the tunnel! Microcosm’s scale mock-up of a section of CERN’s biggest accelerator includes real pieces of equipment. Use a microscope to look at the tiny features that allow scientists to detect and study the fundamental particles that make up the world around us. On 18 September, it will permanently close its doors in preparation for CERNs new flagship Science Gateway project, opening in 2023.
