well according to some websites LHC is going to be launched in 8 hours...

Here is the count down.... http://gendou.com/forum/thread.php?thr=22692

the main site is down which makes me very suspicious.... http://www.lhcountdown.com/


anyone care about this?

wat if it causes a blackhole and kills everyone? (i know this theory has been debunked many times but just in case they were wrong)

I would really want to go and see it


i found a vid... yes i am watching it without audio but i imagine it to be quite random
Code: Select all

hope they dont kill everyone

giant pic!

It's the Large Hardon Collider!



And lul at Gendou. xD

BATMAN SAVE US!

why do they play with the earth life? :S

dont like this kind of stuff, even if the chance is 1 of 3423423 billions, its still a chance out there.. dumbf*cks nerdy professors.

There are already a few threads about this.


It's not dangerous, the only people who would have to fear for there lives are the ones standing next to it when it gets turned out. Micro sized black holes that won't even last long enough for us to even know it's there.

If it has enough energy to create tiny black holes, it quite possibly could be something that helps push us into the future, whole new level of particle physics too as no one really knows what to expect, if it goes wrong it dont matter as well we will all be farked if the worse case senario happens

hell could even be an alternate power source if it can create energy we can use, i cnt wait for it to be used and find out all sorts

Doom 3.

It's official, we're all going to die.

read the wiki its nothing like what i thought it was haha disregard that

its high energy collisions not the other way round, tho the new level of particle physics is possible

sound a lot like start trek with all this plasma talk and black holes tho

Fun thing about this is that it could completely change our understanding of the universe.

Wait did it already turn on or is the counter dead?

No, still an hour and seven minutes until our doom...

it may or may not be turned on, last time the said they where going to turn it on they didn't.

Awww... the world didn't blow up... nothing bad happened

Or maybe it caused us to be warped into a parallel universe, and we don't even know it O.o

isnt september 10th 2008 the first collision?

before then they are just sending particles round the thing

Whew that was a big one, but all is safe now

Yeah it is, right now they are just doing a test 'fire'.

They should build a giant gundam instead of creating black holes -_-

aahhh.... where is that article now... building a giant gundam i know its here somewhere....

yey we didnt die now just wait when they start doing some serious shit....

and what are they going to do after they figured out everything on the first try.....

like srsly

there a billion of unexplained things in the universe, billions of things we dont know of, who is to say it will create a black hole, who is to say it will be deadly, im sure theres more chance of it just giving us a new perspective

but its september 10th and even then its not going to be at full swing

The thing about the whole "black hole" shit is people going crazy when they don't even have an inkling about the physics of the situation.

Black holes give off radiation called "Hawking Radiation." Radiation is a form of energy. Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2 gives a conversion of matter to and from energy. From this, we can assume that the black hole is losing mass as it gives off this radiation. This means it's getting smaller and smaller! Now, an interesting feature of black holes is, the smaller they are, the faster they give off this radiation, which means, the smaller they are, the quicker they shrink. When it gives off the last of it's energy it disappears. The black holes created by the LHC are small ones and while they will be there, they will disappear almost immediately as they give off their radiation and shrink to death.

Knowledge is a peculiar thing: a little bit can be more dangerous than none.

oooooh... LHC... caught my attention...

lost my attentionat the sight of something with tectical.. stuffs...
