One hundred meters underground, straddling the border of France and Switzerland, a machine is tearing reality apart one proton at a time. The Large Hadron Collider fires particles around a sixteen-and-a-half-mile ring at ninety-nine point nine percent the speed of light. The collisions reach nearly ten trillion degrees. And the data coming back is breaking the rulebook physicists have trusted for fifty years. We're going inside the machine. We'll cover the particles that behave wrong, the hidden universe too small to see, and a theory about the vacuum of space that is almost too terrifying to say out loud.
