ATLAS model on world tour

This weekend the first public ATLAS build took place in Melbourne.

After the two models I built at NBI in Copenhagen, this is the first one to be build by others following our instruction videos, which can be found at http://atlas-model.mehlhase.info

With a bunch of children and LEGO enthusiasts the model was constructed in the Museum Victoria, where it is going to be on display from June 30th to July 15th in a LHC exhibition in connection to this year’s ICHEP in Melbourne.

After all the media attention the model already had, it now had its first appearance (as far as I know, please tell me wrong) in local TV news – Channel Seven in Melbourne to be more specific …

And this is only the beginning of the tour :)
