CERN Public Exhibit

There was a reception at the Globe at CERN last night. But first we took in the exhibit. It is spectacular. Very cool and futuristic looking with lots of video and one film that is displayed all around the room. Very well done.

The exhibit also included the very first web server used by Tim Berners-Lee who invented the www in 1989 while working at CERN. In true techie style, there’s an old hand-written sticker on it that says “Do not power down!”
