Why anyone would want to do that and how that whole thing happened is the subject of this book. It's the story of an amazing machine - how it evolved from a simple tabletop experiment into the colossus it is, how it works, and the problems which have blocked it along the way. It's the story of the deep dive into the very fabric of the universe, to probe its mysteries and unlock its secrets. It's the story of the exciting science at the core of nature, and a technology which defies that very nature. And it's the story of the humanity which will shape its destiny, and whose destiny will in turn be shaped by it - the mother of all colliders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 292\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.79 x 11 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 13, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45756683681875,"sku":"9781663264695","price":67.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/9731\/2595\/files\/U127xqPxbv9781663264695.webp?v=1782917676","url":"https:\/\/the-stone-owl-bookstore.myshopify.com\/products\/the-mother-of-all-colliders-paperback","provider":"The Stone Owl Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
