Okay, so you have probably heard about the video that all of the student journalism teams had to prepare while we were abroad. Though you are probably wondering what it is, and what went into making it.
Our group has been back home for almost two whole days now. We arrived back in Rochester on Monday night. I am sad that we only really got to spend five days at CERN. Enough was packed into that time, but there is still alot that we could learn from the people there. The most amazing part for me was definately learning from the physicists at CERN who were willing to share their knowledge with us. Hopefully in the future, we will stay in contact with some who may become involved with our research group. It's exciting how much it has grown in just this past year.
Well, it’s over unfortunately, and right now we’re here on
the long plane ride from
do, so I’m going to write pretty much a generalization of how amazing the trip
was. Obviously there is no internet service on the plane, so I am just writing
it now to pass time and put in the blog later.
Today was open house at CERN where the general public was invited to come into the facilities and see what was up. There were tours of different buildings as well as the ATLAS detector. Our goal today was to interview people who aren't affiliated with CERN in hopes of getting their opinion about different topics. Attached is a sound clip (mp3) that you can listen to of a couple that Leighann and I interviewed for a bit. It is a bit hard to hear since there was alot of people around, but check it out.
Another clip... couldn't attach all at once.
here it is hopefully
