The Tevatron particle collider is shutting down today after years of great science. It’s been a cornerstone of American physics research for almost three decades, and we should pour a little out for the physics homies in Chi-town.
To honor the Tevatron, I thought I’d re-post this picture from The Hipster Scientist (it was a week-long hashtag Twitter-party and a later Tumblr. Ok, not a week … maybe 5 days. But it was hilarious!) Yes, I was the Hipster Scientist.
If we can’t have the Tevatron, perhaps we can find solace in the Joseph Gordon-Levatron instead.
