Leonardo da Vinci may have been a forward-thinking engineer, but what if he had gotten into the particle physics game? CERN researcher Dr. Sergio Cittolin brought out his (not so) inner Renaissance Man with these illustrations of the Large Hadron Collider in Leonardo’s style.

Actually, the “door” in question is actually not a door at all!
If we turn this “door” clockwise we reveal…
…that it is actually a door frame!!
It is a piece of paneling from the doorframe in the First Class lounge based off a piece that was actually recovered:
This piece isn’t more than 3cm at maximum thickness!
In reality, if the panel in the movie was based off the actual panel,
It shouldn’t have held either of them afloat!!
This is why I love tumblr
Fluid mechanics ftw.

Most importantly, if you can at all avoid it, don’t be normal. Strive, burn and do everything you can to avoid being the industry standard. Even the highest industry standard. Be greater than anything anyone else has ever dreamed of you. Don’t settle for pats on the back, salary increases, a nod-and-a-smile. Instead, rage against the tepidness of the mundane with every fiber of whatever makes you, you. Change this place.
The view from my new apartment. That’s where I’ll be starting work tomorrow. I feel like I’m not qualified for a grown up job. You know, since I still use the term “grown up”.
