Week 4: 3/10/2015 - 9pm PDT 3/17/2015

Here we go again! Time to get those captions ready! What do you think is going on in this image from CERN's archives?

Link to the original CERN image.

CERN scientists and engineers often find themselves in interesting positions. However, we're not sure if this CERN staffer ever expected to be quite where he is now!

Add your humorous caption as a comment to this project log. Make sure you're commenting on this project log, not on the project itself.

As always, if you actually have information about the image or the people in it, let CERN know on the original image discussion page.

Good Luck!

As public always suspected, there was no AI (artificial intelligence) in
CERN's AKM (all-knowing-machine). Just a man in white overalls pushing
some rods and buttons.

"Behind in your research? Projects overdue? Trouble getting out of bed
in the morning and getting moving through the day? Join us, as Barry
here demonstrates how just 30 minutes a week inside our new accelerator
can really get things moving!"

ahead of time! You wouldn't believe what else I can do!" – Barry
