Abstract
The Large Hadron collider was designed to address some of the most profound questions facing us today, including the origin of mass and the subtle asymmetry between matter and antimatter that is responsible for our very existence. Some of these questions will be discussed briefly followed by a description of the unique features of the design of the LHC that has opened up a new energy regime culminating in its first major discovery, the Higgs boson.
