The world: CERN is near the red star in Europe. |
|
Europe as seen from the moon. Switzerland sits between France, Germany and Italy. |
|
Switzerland from synchronous orbit. Everything on this map is a day or less drive (or train) from Geneva. Note especially Florence, Venice, Paris, Strasbourg, Munich. |
|
Lac Leman from the space station. France nearly surrounds Geneva. Skiers: note Chamonix and Mont Blanc an hour to the southeast. |
|
Geneva as seen from Swissair. We lived in Troinex. Our children went to school near Bernex (11 minutes by car). The Digital office is in Meyrin (main CERN campus). |
|
CERN on the Geneva map. The +++ line is the French - Swiss border. Note France shares the airport and the main CERN campus (green patch). The second green patch is CERN site at Prévessin. |
|
The location of the accelerator tunnels as they would
be seen from the Cointrin landing pattern. The main CERN campus is at the intesection of the circles. The airport is at the right. |
|
CERN on final approach, looking toward the Jura. The cafeteria is on the edge of campus at the left center. The computer center (map) is just to its right (big white building). The Digital offices are on the bottom floor (near the loading dock).

Map of the Meyrin Campus. The road running down the right side of the picture above is Route du Meyrin. It runs horizontally through the center of this map. The red rectangle outlines the area of the map below. |
|
The red target is on the computer center (IT). The cafeteria is across the street near the bottom of the maplet. The semicirle in the upper middle is the roof of one of the accelerator rings. |
|
The main entrance to the computer center is on the left side of
building 513. The Digital office is near the right arm of the target. There is a building entrance near the office. The office door says DIGITAL.
