Title: Cern to end the world on September 10th?
Post by: CougarSE on September 08, 2008, 10:12:57 PM
Anyone read anything about this?  Seems like one of the biggest media hypes ever but apparently people think that this "Hadron Collider"  will create mini black holes that will grow and devour the earth.

They are trying to recreate the "big bang" and observe many things, including the building blocks of Atoms and why nature prefers matter over anti-matter. 

Odd.

There is also a possibility that all the particles in your body will align with all the atomic voids in the ground under you and you'll fall through the earth to China. Or get stuck somewhere in between and know what it's like to be flame broiled.

Oh well, I'm OK with dying, as long as everyone else dies too...

Hello?....Mythbusters?...where are you? :bowdown: Can you help us all by building a miniature version of a particle accelerator in the span of a one hour TV show using nothing but old army surplus and ballistics gel to confirm or bust whatever the scientists have been working on for serveral decades?

Oh yeah--and can you please find some way to incorporate Buster? Something to where he gets totally FUBAR-ed so I can laugh at his misfortune?

Thanks!

P.S. Carrie's hot.

Well, if the world does end, we won't have time to worry about it, so there's no issue either way :D

LOL, y'all got it wrong...the world came to an end on the day the LAST Fox body Tbird rolled off the assembly line...we're just in hell now, only we don't know it..yet. ;)


As if we need to try and blow our asses up with that, god knows we have enough nukes to do it 11 times over.

Learn to preserve and prolong mother nature...instead of trying to corrupt her even further...

They won't start actually colliding beams for a few weeks. Don't have to worry about the world ending until then.

I think the emotion "mad" would cease to exist after all of humanity was all absorbed into a black hole the size of a pin head :hick:

Well your perception of time begins to slow down once you're at the threshold of the black hole...so technically "mad" could be around, at least in your mind, for what seems like infinity. Meanwhile, back in real time, you're being stretched like spaghetti into the center of the black hole as your atoms lose their cohesion.

It's not a quick death. ;)

We were having a discussion here at work about how fast it would expand (or "absorb".) Would you see the earth's horizon (literal, not event horizon) appear to distort to a point as it was slowly sucking in the earth, or would it happen so fast that you would not have time to think about it? My boss thinks "too fast to think about" - I'm not so sure.

all my wife/kids and I are concerned about is if we can get "LOST" from a black hole.

When i first heard about this super collider
(http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a185/Loki363987/ha.jpg)
Then i heard about the Christians trying to get in the way of science again at least they were not successful this time.

and yes kari is super hot.

Post by: 20th anny 5.o on September 11, 2008, 03:33:11 AM
Well their reasoning was quite out there. They were claiming that little black holes were going to somehow magically excape the Super Collider then sink to the center of the earth and suck up all the liquid hot m-a-g-m-a therefore cooling the world and killing us all..... science wizards.

before the 1st atomic bomb was detonated, the scientists were worried it would ignite the oxygen in the earths atmosphere, therefore incinerating the world, it didnt happen
