Whippin' Good Time
I flew over Fermilab today on my way from Austin to Burlington - of course it was all covered in snow, it being winter and all. It's the first time I've seen it from the air, and it's really impressive. With an accelerator that's four miles in diameter, it's pretty easy to spot from the air on a clear day.
I wasn't really familiar with the facility, but a quick virtual tour shows how really cool it is. Kind of makes you want to be an experimental physicist...maybe that's something to consider for my next career if the whole engineering gig doesn't work out.
