The ATLAS Experiment
One of four detectors at LHC. If this doesn't impress you I don't know what will.

The other LHC detectors are:
CMS The Compact Muon Solenoid (a second general purpose detector, different design)
ALICE A Large Ion Collider Experiment (heavy-ion detector)
LHCb Large Hadron Collider beauty experiment (for precise measurements of CP violation and rare decays)
TOTEM Total Cross Section, Elastic Scattering and Diffraction Dissociation
LHCf Large Hadron Collider forward
