Comments from Around the World
LHC project leader Lyn Evans, "Its a fantastic moment. We can now look forward to a new era of understanding about the origins and evolution of the universe." Nigel S. Lockyer, Director of Canada's TRIUMF laboratory. "One shor t trip for a proton, but one giant leap for mankind! TRIUMF, and indeed all of Canada, is delighted to bear witness to this amazing feat." Pier Oddone, Director of Fermilab. "The completion of the LHC marks the star t of a revolution in par ticle physics." Atsuto Suzuki, Director of Japan's KEK laboratory, "This is a historical moment." Vinod C. Sahni, Director of India's Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology "It has been a fascinating and rewarding experience for us."

United Nations Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon, in a recent visit to CERN "I am ver y honored to visit CERN, an invaluable scientific institution and a shining example what international community can achieve through joint effor ts and contribution. I convey my deepest admiration to all the scientists and wish them all the success for their research for peaceful development of scientific progress."


J.J. Thomson, Speaking in 1934 about the Electron
"Could anything at first sight seem more impractical than a body which is so small that its mass is an insignificant fraction of the mass of an atom of hydrogen? --which itself is so small that a crowd of these atoms equal in number to the population of the whole world would be too small to have been detected by any means then known to science."

Comments from Around the World
Throughout history, people have studied pure science from a desire to understand the universe, rather than practical applications for commercial gain. But their discoveries later turned out to have great practical benefits. It is difficult to see an economic return from research at the LHC, but that doesn't mean there wont be any.
