Tell me about the LHC

[capoopy]

Everything and anything. Put it as simple as possible, Im not a scientist lol.

It basically will fire two beams of protons into each other and microseconds after they collide this super awesome camera will snap a picture to try to find what they call the "Higgs Bosom" which is supposedly a pattern that the particles formed directly after the big bang. Essentially they're recreating the big bang.

That's so cool.

Essentially they're recreating the big bang. Yup, pretty much. A lot of people think it will create worm wholes that will devour the earth. And the truth is: IT WILL!!!! but not as big as you think, maybe microscopic and they will only last less than a second. So no worries.

[IZ]

black holes, not worm holes ;D Oh yeah...worm holes. lol.

[nitsuJ]

Oh yeah...worm holes. lol. you can't have a worm hole until you have two black holes

[capoopy]

cool

Just had a thought about this. They are trying to recreate the big bang..... what if this event was or is the big bang?

Just had a thought about this. They are trying to recreate the big bang..... what if this event was or is the big bang? Then we'll all be in for one heckuva show. It would be great if they do find the Higgs boson though.

[Robot_Butler]

Does the higgs boson look anything like this?

Just had a thought about this. They are trying to recreate the big bang..... what if this event was or is the big bang? They are not trying to recreate the big bang. They are trying to raise a few protons to the same temperatures that they were at during the big bang. Huge difference.

[nitsuJ]

What time does the whole thing start??? They postponed it until 12/21/12.

[IZ]

They postponed it until 12/21/12. They did????? I thought there was a broadcast of the first beam TODAY!!!!! so I'm confused here is the webcast link to show the time and date they will do it. DON'T MISS IT EVERYONE!!! http://webcast.cern.ch/index.html

[IZ]

They postponed it until 12/21/12. Oh I didn't pay close attention to the date, HAHAHA LOL. .....anywho........ EVERYONE!!!! HOLD ON TO SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nitsuJ]

DON'T MISS IT EVERYONE!!! http://webcast.cern.ch/index.html I was kidding. ;D I think it's this Wednesday, is it? I can't watch videos, I'm dial-up.
