Physics teacher using Google Glass held a lesson from CERN

Physics teacher Andrew Vanden Heuvel had long dreamed of visiting CERN and seeing the Large Hadron Collider. With Google Glass, his trip got even more sense, since every step he could show in real time to his students in Michigan, Mashable writes .



In February, Vanden Heuvel was one of the lucky few selected to participate in the Google Glass Explorer program, which allows you to test glasses before they go on sale. Vanden Heuvel, who received his points a few days before the trip to Geneva, said that he quickly figured out the device.



The video above shows how he traveled to Google Glass on a bicycle through the 27-kilometer tunnel of the Large Hadron Collider - more people conquered Everest than cycling in this tunnel - while his students across the ocean watched with delight.

“Needless to say, I am the first person who ever conducted a lesson from inside the LHC tunnel,” writes Vanden Heuvel in his blog. “Having seen only a small part of the whole cycle, I was amazed at the size of all this. The fact that I could share this experience with students and even answer their questions in real time is simply stunning. ”
