'Amazing' Fermilab giant magnet makes stop in Bolingbrook

July 24, 2013

A massive 50-foot-wide electromagnet is making its way to Fermilab from Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York. It's nearing the end of its journey by truck, stopping at a Costco store Wednesday in Bolingbrook. "A 50-foot-wide electromagnet rolling down a road is really something to see," said David Hertzog of the University of Washington, co-spokesman for the Muon g-2 experiment.
