And no, they didn’t shut down ‘cuz it was gonna create a black hole. LHC will be replaced with an upgrade—HiLumi LHC.

The Large Hadron Collider, the world’s largest atom smasher, has shut down for a planned 4-year upgrade that will make it 10 times more sensitive than its initial version.

The world's most powerful particle accelerator will undergo some major upgrades during the 4-year hiatus.
