Micky Dolenz visits Fermilab in the 1970s

Many know Micky Dolenz for his work as an actor and musician for the Monkees – but he’s also a huge particle physics fan. Dolenz captured some 16mm footage during a 1970 visit to the burgeoning Fermilab, then known as the National Accelerator Laboratory. In 2018, Dolenz donated the footage to the Fermilab archives, along with a brief introduction to the material. Enjoy this glimpse of America’s particle physics lab in its infancy.
