The construction of the laboratory was carried out in two stages: the first stage was completed in 2010, as a result of which the volume of the facility increased. 4,000 cubic meters. In the second phase, which started in 2020, the creation of an approximately equivalent volumetric room was completed. 120 Olympic pools.

Teams of physicists, astrophysicists, cosmologists, geologists and doctors work in the laboratory. Doctors working especially in the underground warehouse found molecules adapted to this. Survival in low radiation background conditions. These molecules have significant value as potential molecular targets for anticancer therapy.

But the main focus of the Jingping laboratory remains physics, especially dark matter research.

Dark matter, a mysterious substance with no detectable properties in the electromagnetic spectrum, evades traditional detection methods. Scientists are optimistic that Jinping Laboratory’s unique conditions will improve their ability to investigate and potentially uncover the elusive nature of dark matter.
