Infrastructure that looks like sci-fi... - EndtheMadnessNow - 11-07-2023 ...and/or was in a sci-fi movie. China's Five-Hundred-Meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope in Kedu Township, Pingtang County, Guizhou, China. The IceCube Neutrino Observatory, Antarctica The MareNostrum supercomputer, Barcelona: Rise of the Planet of Exascale Simulations, Part 1 The National Ignition Facility target chamber - Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory: The Svalbard Global Seed Vault and gene bank of 1,214,827 seed samples: French Aerospace Lab’s S1MA supersonic wind tunnel: Inside world’s largest supersonic wind tunnel The Z Machine, world’s largest X-ray generator creates conditions found nowhere else on Earth. Part of Sandia National Laboratories, Albuquerque, New Mexico, Pulsed Power program, which began in the 1960s. International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), Cadarache, France: This cutaway computer model shows ITER with plasma at its core. A technician (bottom left) is shown to demonstrate the machine’s size. ITER is an international effort to build the largest experimental fusion tokamak in the world, a critical step toward future fusion power plants. The European Union, India, Japan, China, Russia, South Korea, and United States are collaborating on the project, which is currently under construction in southern France. The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS): A general-purpose detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It has a broad physics program ranging from studying the Standard Model (including the Higgs boson) to searching for extra dimensions and particles that could make up dark matter. Although it has the same scientific goals as the ATLAS experiment, it uses different technical solutions and a different magnet-system design.
