R.I.P. My Dear Cat







Gran Sasso National Laboratory (Underground)


For one of my projects, I decided to visit LNGS (Gran Sasso Nationa Laboratory). Lab is located in Italy under the mountain. It is just inormous place which reminds my movies about space and crazy science. I had two days access thanks to one russian scientist who decided to take responsobility for me while Im there! So thanks to Oleg Smirnoff for helping me with this project.
Reason for this project was just my curiosity and will to know how do all of them (space science labs) look like? Do they look anything like we see them in film..? Camera was my good excuse to get access (although they are still ok for visitors to come along, but just for big groups). So I saved some money and went to Italy for a week. Trip itself was a good adventure, but thats other story.

Here are some photographs from outside and inside:
