CERN did run a weekend of open days for 14/15 September.
And it is a huge success. We arrived at 10.30 AM at the ALICE site and waited for an hour to go down. Going down means you take an elevator 100 metres underground.
ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is one of the big four experiments on the LHC on the CERN. ALICE is about 25 metres by 16 metres large and has the tremendous weight of 10'000 tons.
