Large Hadron Collider restart postponed till October



Large Hadron Collider restart has been postponed till October due to some extra safety measures. The machine had an electrical fault by a faulty splice in the wiring which resulted in its shutdown last year.lhc

LHC will be used to collide protons from hydrogen atoms inside a 27-kilometer (17-mile) circular tunnel under the Swiss-French. The $10 billion dollar machine is aimed at generating the high speed collision and then studying the results to have a better understanding of the creation of the universe.
