Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab - Batavia) - Near Chicago 2010
The main building on the Fermilab complex sits on a reflecting lake in Batavia, Illinois (about 45 minutes from downtown Chicago).They have the world's second largest particle accelerator (3.9 miles in circumference) underground, I believe.

commented over 2 years agoYou took a photo of one of the two or three fastest speedways in the world! And, as you correctly point out, because it is underground we can only see the lovely above ground entrance to the labs.
