The Large Hadron Collider at CERN still leads the world in the search to uncover what the universe is made of, how it was formed, and what fate may lie in store for it. If there is such a thing as a ‘cutting edge’, it surely lies 100 metres below the Swiss-French border, at the point where the beams collide.
In a unique collaboration, award-winning authors collaborated with CERN. They examined the science from CERN’s past, present and potential future programmes through fiction. From interstellar travel using quantum tunnelling to first contact with antimatter aliens, these stories explore the dark matters that only physics can offer answers to.
Join Sherlock and Dr Who writer Steven Moffat, novelist Dame Margaret Drabble, BBC technology presenter Spencer Kelly, CERN physicist Dr Kristin Lohwasser and CERN producer Connie Potter to discover how science becomes fiction.
