BlueSci Film - Large Hadron Collider (Part 1)

[isSHEEPMANimmortal]

so... i guess i understand more of what the LHC is for but there was still some stuff in there that went way over my head... i had to watch the Higgs field/boson bit 3 times just to catch everything they were saying. particle physics, you so craaaaazy.

The Hawkins theory? - THEORY?

Do the public (or these scientists) know what a theory is?

Definition of theory: An unproven conjecture; An expectation of what should happen, barring unforeseen circumstances;

[gangstagrannie]

These people are literally playing 'god' and that's really not wise.

If its true and this particle thing has been happening for over 4 billion years, then why do they need to build this machine?

I believe they might not be telling us the whole story............

I think this is the best documentary on youtube regarding the LHC.

Love the explanation of the Higgs field and boson. Yay for youTube.

We all die someday *shrug*

Do these people not remember the A-bomb!?!?!

[mdma4life]

These people were not alive, or were children during the atomic weapons program.

Of the 3000 scientists studying atomic energy, only ~30 knew they were designing a weapon.

The rest were told they were working on making a new energy source, so as to free up oil for the war effort.

And then theres Edward Teller, a man insistent on (AFTER THE WAR) designing a nuclear FUSION device (1000x more powerful then a fission bomb used on hiroshima/nagasaki), so "Russia doesn't get there first"

[mdma4life]

The LHC is just a larger particle accelerator, and its function is not for weapons development, but for understanding ...

thanks you so much for adding this
