Formed September 29th, 1954, CERN, or the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is an international organization that has fundamental physics as its main business. One of CERN's past major developments was the World Wide Web in the 1990s. Its most recent work has concentrated around the Large Hadron Collider. In 2012, scientists believe the accelerator has found the Higgs Boson, or "God Particle," which it hopes will help answer basic questions about our universe. In this http://www.WatchMojo.com video, we take a look at the history of CERN.
