Abstract Since 1954 CERN, the most prestigious particle physics laboratory, have been building gigantic devices to discover the intimate nature of matter. These huge technological cathedrals are the new LHC accelerator and the particle decetors. These inmense machines capable of revealing the secrets of the microcosmos. This is a journey back through millions of years to the very origin of the univers: the Big Bang. This documentary will reveal all answers on the scientific nature of matter and provide a comprehensive account of one of the greatest experiments ever made.
