Atom smasher fires up - and we're still here
September 10, 2008 - 6:01PM

Scientists have fired the first protons into a 27-kilometre tunnel at the world's largest particle collider in science's next great step towards understanding the make-up of the universe.

Project leader Lyn Evans gave the order to send the protons into the $US3.8 billion ($4.75 billion) Large Hadron Collider below the Swiss-French border early today.

Scientists hope it will provide the necessary power to smash the components of atoms so that they can see how they are made.

The start-up has been eagerly awaited by 9000 physicists around the world who will conduct experiments here.

Some skeptics have said they fear the collisions of protons could eventually imperil Earth.

Where's the Kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth-shattering Kaboom!

It's been stated elsewhere but I will repeat it.......
The kabooom will not happen for a few weeks yet. They only fired up the first beam of protons today. A bit like shooting bullets into the air - nothing to hit. The real stuff doesnt happen until the second beam (in the opposite direction) fires up. You may want to hide under the chair on that day. :hide: Not that it will do you mucxh good if the doomsdayers are correct. Which by the way, they are not.
 
Re: Are we all going to die Thursday?

I'm not sure if they've collided yet.

Destroying the Earth takes time, ya know.

**Pinch**

Wot?

I'm still here??

But - am I real....???

Maybe I'm a figment of my own derangement...???? :bonk:


Eeerkk...

Do we have any proof that we're not actually all inside a black hole right now?

Maybe all things are relative. How would you know?
 
Re: Are we all going to die Thursday?

The finance industry has demonstrated that life goes on, despite numerous enourmous black holes. :
 
Re: Are we all going to die Thursday?

I'm hoping the Bigbang will happen AFTER NSL and CAG announcement is made!
At least I can my first $$$$ from shares!
 
Re: Are we all going to die Thursday?

Well it was a nice feeling waking up this morning in a material world - lol

as some one said before here they don't strt the smash 'em ups until next month.


Should be interesting.
 
Re: Are we all going to die Thursday?

i love the way google always present the very interesting topics in their search engine presentation

the collider one they are using now is quite appropriate..
 
Re: Are we all going to die Thursday?

Well the experiment is yet to start

They just fire up the beam, next step they fire one of the atom in one direction
let them spin around for while to build up momentum

then they fire the second one going the opposite direction

when they crash into each other that when the black hole will be created
if there is any black hole at all

so we are not clear yet hahahaha
 
Re: Are we all going to die Thursday?


I have NO fear!

Obviously, The Fed will bail us out if Black Hole shi-i-te hits the fan.. :fan:
