The largest single piece of experimental scientific apparatus is CERN's Large Hadron Collider. The LHC's ATLAS detector, one of two that discovered the Higgs boson, has a control building adorned with a magnificent mural. How it happened is a fascinating glimpse at the crossroads of art and science.
