🤓 It turns out that the tallest tin soldier in the world stands in New Westminster, British Columbia

Its height is 9.75 meters. The statue depicts a sergeant major of the Royal Engineers who laid the foundations of the city and maintained order from 1859–1863.

And in the soldier’s heart is a time capsule that will be opened in 2025.

SNOLAB is a world-class scientific laboratory located at a depth of just over 2 kilometers near the city of Sudbury in a former nickel mine. The dimensions of the laboratory are impressive: the area of ​​underground premises is 5000 m2, and 3100 m2 of auxiliary structures are located on the surface. The main areas of scientific activity of SNOLAB are the study of the physics of subatomic particles, in particular nitrino, and the properties of dark matter, which makes up 70% of our Universe. In terms of the purity of the experiments carried out in the laboratory and the depth of its location, SNOLAB is second only to the younger Chinese laboratory CJPL, located at a depth of 2.4 kilometers.
