DJI Mavic Pro Platinum Drone at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab)

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), located just outside Batavia, Illinois, near Chicago, is a United States Department of Energy national laboratory specializing in high-energy particle physics. Since 2007, Fermilab has been operated by the Fermi Research Alliance, a joint venture of the University of Chicago, and the Universities Research Association (URA). Fermilab is a part of the Illinois Technology and Research Corridor.
Fermilab's Tevatron was a landmark particle accelerator; at 3.9 miles (6.3 km) in circumference, it was the world's fourth-largest particle accelerator (after CERN's Large Hadron Collider, which is 27 km in circumference, the Large Electron-Positron Collider, which was also 27 km in circumference and the Super Proton Synchrotron, which is 6.9 km in circumference), until it was shut down in 2011. In 1995, the discovery of the top quark was announced by researchers who used the Tevatron's CDF and DØ detectors.

How'd you get approval to fly there? I've always wanted to check out the property with a drone.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of Energy terminated another accelerator under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory and urged a massive research and development effort leading to the completion in the mid-1990's of a super accelerator.

I'm planning to visit Fermilab in a few weeks and would like to get some drone video while I'm there. Did you need permission to fly at the lab?
