re: Most famous/memorable/iconic moment in Human History?

The Large Hadron Collider at CERN being built and turned on for the first time is quite significant as well. From some people terrified it would create a black hole and swallow the Earth, to them actually discovering a new particle...it is quite an insane, mind-blowing piece of technology. It is still in its infancy and who knows what the hell else we will learn from that thing.
