'''Microcosm''' or '''CERN Museum''' was an interactive exhibition presenting the work of the [[CERN]] [[particle physics]] laboratory and its flagship accelerator the [[Large Hadron Collider]] (LHC). It first opened to the public in 1990 and closed permanently in September 2022, to be replaced by the ''Science Gateway'' in 2023.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://home.cern/news/news/cern/microcosm-30-years-telling-cerns-story | title=Microcosm, 30 years telling CERN's story | date=18 July 2024 }}</ref> The final version of the exhibition opened in January 2016,<ref>{{Cite web|title = La nouvelle expo du Cern vous rend presque chercheur|url = http://www.ledauphine.com/haute-savoie/2016/01/18/la-nouvelle-expo-du-cern-vous-rend-presque-chercheur|website = www.ledauphine.com|access-date = 2016-01-20}}</ref> developed by CERN in collaboration with Spanish design team Indissoluble.<ref>{{Cite web|title = Indissoluble.
