CERN's Large Hadron Collider, world's first time machine?



CERN's Large Hadron Collider, world's first time machine?

CERN's Large Hadron Collider, world's first time machine?

The world's most powerful particle accelerator becomes functional this spring unleashing forces capable of distorting not only space (just like gravity distorts space around Earth), but also time. Two proton beams travel in opposite directions and collide in an attempt to replicate Big Bang conditions.

AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH! Smaller scale? SMALLER SCALE? Look what happened when they were like, "oooo lets split an atom" BOOM

adn brown books make you feel smart when you read them, but he gets by one the smallest pieces of factual info. everything seems so easy when explained by him but in truth you have learned nothing. CERN is cool as F**k. and it cost waaaay more than 2.6 billion didnt it?

You mean Dan Brown isn't non-fiction? Get out.

They aren't trying to create black holes they are colliding know particles at incredible speed in order to create new and hopefully undiscovered particles

Guest (565 days ago)

That guy with the greyish jacket seated above the "liftlux" sign. Is he holding the elastic band which releases the particle?

The Philadelphia Experiment has been admitted by the US Navy as a hoax. And if I recall correctly, the experiment was supposed to make a ship disappear, not to create a black hole... Also, Angels and Demons is a good book, but don't believe everything Dan Brown writes. He is not the fountain of all knowledge people seem to believe

Guest (560 days ago)

Wow, if this works. Who has read Angels & Demons? Amazing stuff

Guest: fog (564 days ago)

jimi you have never heard of the philidelphia experiment, this is real though.

Guest: harry (564 days ago)

They are also after 'the god particle' which could help with finding the unification theory. ie linking quantum mechanics and relativity and a lot of other stuff.

Who's running this? Black Mesa? stay away from Switzerland!

Guest: Wud (565 days ago)

If it works, one of your feet is going to be in your hometown, and the other one in Geneva. Sweet.

Guest (565 days ago)

Thats pretty. Whats it for? What happens if it works?

Guest: Sciencenooob (565 days ago)

Imagine you finally finish this and realise you put all the rings in back to front :) (yeah I know it doesn't work like that but it's the first thing that came to mind!)

Guest: bubba (565 days ago)

Anyone know the price tag?

Guest: Jimi (564 days ago)

Last time I checked, physics prevented you from creating black holes on Earth.

Guest: sämelihülz (565 days ago)

They say that the black holes they're gonna produce aren't dangerous, but nobody is really sure what's gonna happen.

Guest: sämelihülz (565 days ago)

It's in Switzerland near Geneva. In the moment they are trying to produce black holes.

Guest: Tom (565 days ago)

Mmmmmm. She's cute. I'd love to experiment with her ring.

£2.6bn!

Guest: JimmyMac (565 days ago)

£2.6bn! Thats cheap, it they'd built that in the UK it would have cost ten times that. Look at the Olympics they are costing £5bn, Wembley cost £800m!
