Pictures of LHC (Large Hadron Collider) near Geneva, Switzerland. It will smash protons with seven times energy and hundred times the rate of the top collider to date, the Tevatron at Fermilab Chicago.

LHC will probe the interactions of the particles down to the unprecendented scale of 10-17 centimeters, which is roughly the size of universe a trillionth of second after the big bang, when the fundamental forces of nature were born.
