Scientists can create blackhole and end the universe?

i say go for it!

I know the fear of this has a lot to do with being educated on the subject and being able to understand the physics behind it. Ie. None of us are scientifically inclined enough to know whether or not that thing is actually capable of producing a black hole

But shit, that still scares the fuck outta me.

Wonder how many Db'z it'll hit???

Anyone see the mist? Because this thing totally reminds me of whatever the scientists were doing right when the mist arrived.

That didn't go very well.

They could have saved themselves a few bucks and just bought some Funky Pups. Funky Pups collide protons all the time...

This is pretty scary, it's just scary in general how far technology is coming along. I was reading about little computer chips that could possible be implanted into the damaged hippocampus of the brain (for ppl with alzheimer's and such) and act as brain cells, relaying messages and decoding analog brain signals into digital signal, then reconverting them and bypassing the damaged hippocampus and storing the "memories" in other parts of the brain. Just crazy to think they are developing "computerized brain cells."

Also, this demonstrates just how much money is put into all kinds of porojects like these and how wonder how much is wasted on unnecessary/failed projects.

u think this is new news? Has anyone read Angle and Demons?

why would they spend so much money just to do that?

dammit man wtf is up wih people?

yeah i have. this is what i was getting at with the whole antimatter thing. I believe the scientists have been workin on this before the book came out tho. haha

why would they spend so much money just to do that?

dammit man wtf is up wih people?

space travel and shit.

space travel and shit.

I dunno man...this could fail badly

mmmm, superconducting colliders.... ah, I miss the mid 90's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I did a bunch of thin films & materials research for these turkey's back then //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif It usually takes 20-30 years for any high energy physics projects to get implemented. Mainly the cost is so high due to new design methodologies and basic hard core R&D. So really, 8 billion isnt all that much. Hell when I was doing accelerator work, I personally spent 1.2 million in my first year //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

If you think this is cool, you should check out america's very own collider at Fermilab, its called the Linac. Hell, its in our proverbial "back yard" and you probably dont even know it.

oh, by the way..... Fermilab has been around since the 70's. So all of this is old, old old news //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

We are just one step closer to creating antimatter, go CERN.

wewt

i say go for it!

hell ya

"The world’s physicists have spent 14 years and $8 billion building the Large Hadron Collider"
well that seems like a waste of money IMO

agreed to the 10th degree
