Anybody got a spare $29 million?


That is the estimated repair bill for out old friend, The Large Hadron Collider. Apparently the helium leak caused significant mechanical damage which will require 53 of the 57 magnets in the 27 mile long tunnel to be removed then reinstalled. The repair work has already begun, but the estimate is that they will not have all of the magnets reinstalled until March and probably won't be ready to fire it up again until June. hmm.gif

With a price tag like that, wouldn't you kinda like to be a particle accelerator repair person? I sure would!!
