| Seven months after its scientists made a landmark discovery that may explain the mysteries of mass, Europe's top physics lab will take a break from smashing invisible particles to recharge for the next leap into the unknown.
The cutting-edge facilities at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) will begin winding down on Thursday, then go offline on Saturday for an 18-month upgrade.
Over the past three years, CERN has slammed protons together more than six million billion times.
A vast underground lab straddling the border of France and Switzerland, CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) was the scene of an extraordinary discovery announced in July 2012.
Its scientists said they were 99.9 per cent certain they had found the elusive Higgs Boson, an invisible particle without which, theorists say, humans and all the other joined-up atoms in the universe would not exist.
