Sponsorship from Curiosity stream made this whole trip to CERN possible funding flights and accommodation for two people so a big thanks to them. To all my willing interviewees who I peppered with questions Mark, Tara and April you guys are the best for giving up your time. Also, a giant THANK YOU to Michaela LivingstonBanks (of Nailing Science fame) who took time away from the desk to follow me around with a camera all week. And a HUGE thank you to Stephanie Hills at CERN for scheduling this whole trip she was my inbox fairy ❤

This documentarystyle video is new for me and I had loads of fun planning, filming and editing it so I hope you enjoy (sorry about the out of focus shot with April).

Background music is “Surviving the Asteroid Belt” from the YouTube audio library.
