Oh man, you're killing me, Doc. It's the world's largest and most powerful particle collider, the largest, most complex experimental facility ever built, and the largest single machine in the world. Basically, it allows physicists to test the predictions of different theories of particle physics and high-energy physics. In particular, it lets us further test the properties of the Higgs boson and the large family of new particles predicted by supersymmetric theories. Also, loads of other unsolved questions of physics.
