The work atmosphere in this vast complex was referred to true with the word "precision ecstasy".
Here, the human energy gängelt up to 28 trillion electron volts. 13 European countries - among them the Federal Republic - raised about 300 million marks for the construction of this gigantic research facility, the exclusively peaceful purposes.

Sahara: During the inauguration in Meyrin by world public opinion went almost unnoticed, the French nuclear bomb test in the Sahara triggered global discussions. In many years of work, a partly underground nuclear test town arose in Reggan in the Hamoudjawüste. The hour X minus 25 has struck the hour, in which France becomes the fourth nuclear power.
The explosion of the French Atomic bomb was a very different world.

The daring swimmer belong to the first group of German saving society, which is equipped with wetsuits and breathing apparatus. Their achievements are admired with law, because is this bailout is quite dangerous in the event of an emergency.
The hobby of the Berliner sport diver Fred Methner is not dangerous, but for all the more interesting. Using a special microphone, he refutes the old view that fish are dumb. On the contrary: under water is quite turbulent. Here for example is a sail fin. The feeding sounds of a tropical perch and the excited words of warning of a lobster.

The 1600 metre-long Olympic Bobsled placed high demands on the Championship aspirants.
District Court of Council Dr. Berndt from Seesen won in the men's-a the first title of the year for Germany.
Also in doubles, he went off in the 16 ice curves of the track. Well groomed skids and cheap railway conditions led to a hellish pace.
The German defending champions had this fierce competition from Austria. Reinhold frog and Ewald Walch number 10 steered their sled in a bravura ride the goal and the victory against.
27 special crack rotor to the Hans Haas Cup competed also in Garmisch. The Olympiaschanze saw this time although not Olympic candidates. but in'"absence of the big guns of the jump, there was still considerable benefits." The mountain wind far less well was the Sun, and so had the jumpers to master some treacherous BoE.
At most, the Finn Antti endured his jumps to Hyvaerinnen. With 80.5 and 82.5 metres he won the Hans Haas Cup.
