The Large Hadron Collider is a particle accelerator and collider located at CERN, near Geneva, Switzerland. It is currently under construction, but nearing completion.
The LHC is expected to become the world's largest and highest energy particle accelerator. Over 2000 physicists have worked on the development and planning of the hadron collider.
The hadron collider is in a 17 mile long tunnel located underground.
