Israel set to join European nuclear organization

CERN has created the world's most sophisticated, advanced and expensive scientific infrastructure particle accelerator.

Israel is set to become the first non-European member of European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). CERN has created the world's most sophisticated, advanced and expensive scientific infrastructure particle accelerator for unlocking the secrets of the universe.

After the cabinet approved membership today, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that joining CERN was a great scientific and diplomatic achievement for Israel. "This achievement reflects the latent capabilities of Israeli scientists and constitutes recognition of their ability. Israel is joining an exclusive club, which provides unusual visibility, exposure, prestige and international status."
