A Lively Elicitation

So, apparently pictures of the tracks particles leave when they collide in a particle accelerator machine look really awesome.

This is a color version taken at CERN, the European particle physics lab in Geneva, Switzerland.  I've been there.  All of the science stuff happens underground, but the inside showroom/museum thing is still pretty cool to see.

Bonus Trivia: It also happens to be the cover of The Strokes album, Is This It.
