Since the first stable beams were injected and collided in the LHC, ALICE started to take data with special detector and trigger configurations. A few tests were also performed.

Cameras and other dedicated equipment have been installed in the ALICE Run Control Centre to allow remote visitors to be guided in a virtual tour of the control room and of the experimental cavern. Despina Hatzifotiadou hosting a virtual visit with a Greek high school [Credits: Virginia Greco/CERN]
