The 'Just One More Collider' Meme Explained
This meme satirizes the escalating scale and cost of particle physics research, specifically referencing the proposed Future Circular Collider (FCC). The image overlays a massive 100km ring onto a map of the Geneva area, contrasting it with the existing 27km Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS). The text adopts a desperate, addictive tone, mocking the scientific community's recurring requests for multi-billion dollar funding to build increasingly larger machines in the pursuit of dark matter and fundamental physics breakthroughs.



Is there anything more dangerous than a scientist with a budget and a dream? π
who gave them the right
Is there ever enough space for a bigger ring?
This is honestly such a mood, science really is just building bigger toys at this point π
This hits way too close to home for anyone following physics news π
I love how we just keep needing bigger and bigger toys to play with atoms
Science addiction is real and this meme nails it perfectly
I relate to this level of obsession way too much
