  I feel like the title is a little overdramatic.<p>They’re not saying goodbye to the LHC, they’re upgrading it to have 10x the power.

  I&#x27;ve read that CERN is storing more than 1 exabyte of collisions data these days (up from 600PB during the last long shutdown <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;information-technology.web.cern.ch&#x2F;sites&#x2F;default&#x2F;files&#x2F;CERNDataCentre_KeyInformation_Nov2021V1.pdf" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;information-technology.web.cern.ch&#x2F;sites&#x2F;default&#x2F;fil...</a>). Not too shaby...

  Having done my little contribution to ATLAS TDAQ&#x2F;HLT in the early 2000&#x27;s, it is an interesting feeling to see the next steps taking shape.
