Lumpi makes historical trip to the 4th dimension

01. A Chihuahua has traveled across EPFL's miniature black hole and entered the fourth dimension. He's the first living organism to have accomplished this feat. Watch out for EPFL's mini black hole! This experimental device swallows up everything it encounters: pens, paper clips, cell phones. No small object can escape it. But what kind of world does this dark hole open onto? It's impossible to imagine the four-dimensional universe hidden within. Lumpi, a Chihuahua specially trained for the voyage, is now the first living creature to have traveled to the supra-temporal world that was predicted by Einstein in his famous Tronheim-Mersault lecture.
