The Hadron Collider is going to be revved up, I guess. The chance that it'll make a black hole is like 1/10000000000, so I wouldn't worry.    

  That's the day I go back to school!


 

 Hadron collider. Judging by the name, its for generating power by atom splitting yeah? Or something like particle acceleration?


I think that they're trying to recreate the big bang; the particles that they'll be smashing are supposed to like create matter when they collide or some such thing.


That's a very big risk in fairness. Chemistry laws state that matter can't be created or destroyed

My physics prof. said that people who think we are going to die are "damn idiots".

All true,
He is right.


The large hadron collider can't be powerful enough to create a massive blackhole, it may make mini blackholes - but they will die off in less than a second.
Not enough for the mini blackholes to build up into a real big one.
So, we will surivive.

True, it is, but they're willing to take it in the name of science. The big bang was an anomaly (if it happened?), and the laws may have to be changed if this whole deal is successful.

No. It states that matter and energy must be conserved. By Einstein's general theory of relativity, you can create matter by expending energy, and you can create energy by expending matter.

So if they put a whole buttload of energy into this, it is conceivable that they could convert it to matter.

Aliens will come thru the blackhole that  the large hadron collider will create.

Yeah, but I mean come on, isn't this taking it a bit far? I mean, as a member above said, it would probably only make micro black holes, that wouldn't last a micro second. They've made these already anyway. But still, even though theoretically it is possible, attempting to make matter, by means of massive particle acceleration, is a slight risk, is it not? This is like, speeding atoms up faster than ever before, and though it is unlikely, what if there were major consequences? Physists can't be 100% sure with this, they've never attempted it before.

(I'm not worried, just curious)

My physics teacher is going crazy about it. I'm not quite sure what is going to happen, but she's stuck up posters all over school.

I'd love it if she wore a collinder on her head and a billboard and ran around screaming "the end is neeear!"

Ha, that would be good. But she's not against it, she's really excited. It's like Christmas come early for her.

If memory serves, one of the purposes of this is to prove the existence of other dimensions to the four we know of currently, on top of the obvious proving the existence of theoretical particles. I really can't wait for this :D for the record, it's at CERN, in Switzerland, not Sweden.
