Sky Arte Documentary Explores CERN's Role in Innovation
A documentary titled 'Almost nothing. CERN: la scoperta del futuro' will air on Sky Arte on Sunday, August 2, exploring the CERN laboratory's contributions to technological innovation. Located on the border between France and Switzerland, CERN is the world's largest particle physics lab and a hub where global scientists collaborate. The film covers anecdotes about discoveries like the World Wide Web and the first non-scientific photo on the internet—a portrait of the official CERN girl band Les Horribles Cernettes, which inadvertently paved the way for social networks. The documentary describes the scientific community with passion and irony. Sky Arte's site is powered by Artribune, which manages its content and digital interface.
