The Large Hadron Collider will be turned on again this weekend.
The thing has a diameter of 5.41 miles.
The first cyclotron (built just over 80 years ago) by comparison, had a diameter of 27 inches and used a very large magnet that was surplus from the First World War (and was found in a junkyard).
Atom-smashing has come a long way!
