Recently, an entire chapter of Innovators Alliance members took the long 5 hour drive up north to Sudbury, Ontario for a visit to SNOLab (Sudbury Neutrino Observation Laboratory). \u00a0Celebrated as one of the deepest laboratories in the world, we all took the one and a half minute cage ride down just over two kilometers in the solid granite and then walked laterally for about a kilometer through a 70 year old mine shaft until we all ended up at the entrance to SNOLab.<\/p>\n

Here we all washed off our boots and entered into a James Bond-like world of ultraclean labyrinths and \u2018caves\u2019 that none of us could believe. Dressed in our SNOLab ultraclean gear, a complete about-face from the mining gear we all wore to get down to the lab, we walked by experiments to detect supernovae with sufficient warning to be able to set a telescope to actually see it happening, as well as experiments that were designed to be so extremely sensitive that they would be able to see nothing at all\u2026dark matter. \u00a0This experiment will be the largest dark matter detector in the world!<\/p>\n

For those of you that love to learn I\u2019d encourage you to visit SNOLab\u2019<\/a>s website and even read this Globe and Mail<\/a> article. \u00a0I know you\u2019ll find it all fascinating and will continue to do more reading about the experiments that place Canada amongst the most innovative scientific research countries IN THE WORLD. \u00a0You will be proud to be a curious Canadian.<\/p>\n

Innovation in motion \u2013 a great experience for all!<\/p>\n
