One of the downsides of physics is that while everyone loves it, people generally find the parts that you find interesting incredibly boring, or you get some sidetrack like LHC=doomsday machine. I wouldn't call it epic though, it seems to be about as big a story as Camilla, which I can't help but mention under the circumstances. But it is relatively important, pardon the pun, nothing really new, just a pretty impressive experiment to put together, we already knew GR held at that scale, it really only would have mattered if the results came out all screwy, so more an epic feat of design and engineering then a spawner of groundbreaking data.
