piece of junk
she just said 3 hours.. that's 5am our time..............
Well, it's not like I have anything better to do. I guess I'll play some Arkham Asylum until the Hadron Collider turns us into pure energy.
well we don't know what happened, and the the cryogenics happened which we think is unrelated but really we don't know cause this machine has never been used before
they've already been doing these tests.. just increasing the power of the collisions now
hawking said we'd be ok, i think he knows his
If Stephen Hawking is so smart, why is he paralyzed?
cause he spent 13 billion on a giant fail machine instead of a cure for "my legs no work"
He's not paralyzed. He just doesn't feel like it. He moves the universe around him with his mind.
Wow, that web stream is really clean. I want to see particles flying tho or this is a waste of time!
It worked perfectly.
It just doesn't want to let you know that it worked.
Resisting the urge to create my first troll here.
PROVE ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
lol
Have people had to take any anti-depressents or sedatives to escape from persistent thoughts of destruction on account of the LHC?
nice picture ha...
i'm sure it's messed with a lot of people's heads
i it does destroy us we won't feel it so God help us all
The upcoming experiments at the Large Hadron Collider have sparked fears among the public that the LHC particle collisions might produce doomsday phenomena, involving the production of stable microscopic black holes or the creation of hypothetical particles called strangelets.[53] Two CERN-commissioned safety reviews have examined these concerns and concluded that the experiments at the LHC present no danger and that there is no reason for concern,[54][55][56] a conclusion expressly endorsed by the American Physical Society.[57]
per wiki
I'm sure in those "safety reports" there's a sentence like "the LHC does not represent a sizable risk of cataclysmic failure (less than .005%), which would result in the destruction of the very fabric of time and space in relation to this planet and the surrounding solar system." You just gotta know it's in there somewhere, but it's an acceptable risk cuz we just gotta find out where we came from and how we got here (even if we destroy ourselves and the world in the process! weeeeeee!!!).
Look at all the people in the background of the interview streams, they look happy being that close to their destruction. It's probably the barbiturates.

yeah i read there was a theory of 1 in 50 million of something occuring, but also if there were miniature black holes they would dissipate (or some ) according to hawking's theory
either way, no one is stopping this.. there have been attempts
I am confident that the world will continue to go on. Anyone want to bet me a million dollars that the world won't end?
This is the same fears and concerns for decades with various experiments, starting with the nuclear bomb to my knowledge, only the public was in the dark on that one.
To be fair WC, I don't think we're quite yet in the clear on the whole nukes thing. It's not like the possibility of nuclear warfare is archaic, after all.
There were those that though splitting the atom would lead to a chain reaction of destroying all matter. Just unfounded fears, like this Hadron Collider is.
Hm, did not know that. But you're older than I, so I guess that's to be expected.
I do remember all the hoopla about Y2K though. I actually got a great price purchasing plane tickets to fly that day.
