Mansion

According to BBC News the experiments that will seek to identify the elusive Higgs boson using the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator at Cern are “each about the size of a mansion”. How the f**k big is a mansion? Is that bigger or smaller than a palace? How about a castle? Is this some sort of joke that I’m not getting?

  1. I’m sure there’s an SI definition somewhere… smaller than a palace or most castles. But maybe the same size as Severndroog Castle.
