Week 21: 6/24/2015 - 9pm PDT 7/2/2015
These two CERN scientists are looking through some kind of optical apparatus. There is a plano-convex lens mounted on an adjustable arm. The scientists appear to be looking through a window while adjusting some controls.
Is this some kind of physics experiment? Could it be research into psychomotor acuity? Maybe the dark haired scientist is just getting her yearly CERN eye exam? You tell us!
This week's prize is a Teensy 3.1 from The Hackaday Store.
Add your humorous caption as a comment to this project log. Make sure you're commenting on this contest log, not on the contest itself.
As always, if you actually have information about the image or the people in it, let CERN know on the original image discussion page.
Good Luck!

Even with her looking glass, Alice could not find the elusive White Rabbit quark.
Are you sure? yes | no
"Nancy was certain she could focus the beam using an old magnifying glass; But alas, it only made the problem bigger."
Are you sure? yes | no
"No Mr Bond, We expect you to die"... Psst hey Myrtle which one is the "die" button.. i keep pushing "tickle"
Are you sure? yes | no
Using a high-index refractive lens two Cern scientists confirmed that the judges for the Hackaday Cern caption contest, in fact, do not have a disCernable sense of humor.
At least not within measurement error.
Are you sure? yes | no
CERN employees testing an early prototype of the playschool magic mirror.. I can see Billy and Susie and Mary.
Are you sure? yes | no
Evil Eve knew that this, older, model of an Interocitor only functioned as a Directed energy weapon as Alice was about to find out, or probably not.
Are you sure? yes | no
The special effects associated with magic jewels in the electromechanical version of "Legend of Zelda" lacked a certain subtlety.
Are you sure? yes | no
It's easy, you look through the lens, and rotate the handle. Then wiggle your other hand backwards and forwards to zoom in and out, and once you are totally happy then you can push the buttons to launch the rockets. We're thinking about calling it either Thermonuclear War or Missile Command. Of course this is all a simulation for now, once we get sign off for production we ARE going to have to make it a lot simpler.
Are you sure? yes | no
"What do you mean, why shouldn't I look into this laser ?"
Are you sure? yes | no
58 minutes spent on the claw machine, and the Nobelium was vanishing fast.
Are you sure? yes | no
Mary and Steve swore that they were going to be the ones to win this year's where's Waldo competition, unfortunately they lost to the guys in the next lab with an SEM.
Are you sure? yes | no
Margie barely survived this early form of DIY lasik surgery!
Are you sure? yes | no
I spy with my quantum eye, something with a 75% probability of being spin up!
Are you sure? yes | no
That cheap POS.. I told you it was Cubic Zirconia Ronda.
Are you sure? yes | no
Confirmed. It's a zit!
Are you sure? yes | no
CERN scientist hires Ms Holmes to find the dead pixels. Even back then it was a mystery.
Are you sure? yes | no
See, Alice; now that we have mounted a shard of their world on the control sceptre the Dimensional Dopplegangers are trapped and the Jabberwocke can be observed safely through the mirror. Now why is the Alice-double waving and pointing at me like that? Alice? Alice?!?!!
Are you sure? yes | no
"And through this device, you can still see traces of Alice going through the mirror."
Are you sure? yes | no
See You move it this way and the little man moves that way.
Move it the other way and he moves the other way.
COOL. You try now.
Are you sure? yes | no
Help me look for the subject of the text message form House of Representative Anthony Weiner.
Are you sure? yes | no
