ATLAS - Episode 1 -A New Hope

[rubixor]

1:13-4:30. Does this make anyone else want to get out their legos or am i just wierd like that?

[k0zka]

This is far the best resource on LHC so far.

[lepape2]

I have to agree. Haven't found much denser information anywhere else.

[ilovejulialena]

what's is the song in the beginning?

[JackDuran]

There is no song in the beginning. Only escaping particles in a vast nothingness of space.

[thrax777]

mars the bringer of war by gustav holst

[Mannex17]

jupiter is in there too, it's the next song after the scrolling text

[manuelzohar]

this video is excellent,and its animation is perfect

[Yaminabototal]

this thing looks pretty much like HALF LIFE, where is our Gordon? :O

[inzhener2007]

Круто товарищи!!!!!!

[birchthebirch]

anyone else reminded of jurassic park one where they all sit in a cinema and watch that crazy dna show lmao

[Vestolord]

I have no idea wtf are they saying but thats thing looks cool though lol:))

[panson78]

Maybe I should ask them if I can stick my head in there to see if it can cure baldness.

[MegaBoy1594]

i speak no english

[pmdohio]

How do they know what the big bang was like a few moments after it happened? They do not even know what the big bang is. ( I use is because it is still a in process.) I am all for progress, but this looks like a bunch of chimps with shot guns.

[Tychicuss]

It amazes me the progress of science; however, all the money spent on these giant experiments, nobody stops its existence, to feed hungry children, instead.

[lustacapulco]

ask any church they spend more money in buildings, luxury and meat.

[ytmoog]

"instead"

Why can't both be done?

[simonh84]

the UK spends more money on downloadable ringtones than it does in funding for the ATLAS experiment. In the grand scheme of things I dont think we need to worry about it taking money away from starving children.

[Bodraw333]

Dude due to the mass inhabitance of dilectualaity it amazes people and incourages more expiriments in the LHC and we should see more progress in the experiment in 2010.:))))

[RantHammer]

Star Wars underground? The particle accelerator was build to detect the graviton so they can control it. With this knowledge they can hold the world hostage. Imagine looping a gravity well and traveling to Mars in milliseconds. Hey why not extract neurons to produce unlimited electricity for the planet. That would be worth 16 billion. If this doesnt work, youre looking at the set on the next James Bond movie. Go to my page to check out the real plans.

[dividenot]

It would take a massive amount of energy to manipulate one graviton. Probably only the core of the sun could generate such energy. But if we could harness that energy, the effects on our environment would be enormous.

I can't find any info on your page(youtube page?). I'm sure there are people who have things in mind for the discoveries scientists make with the HDC. I just think those ideas are pretty far away. I did hear that Michio Kaku made (rough) plans for a warmhole machine though.

[Bodraw333]

Yeah but maybe creating "Antimatter" could be an "unlimited" source of energy due to the production of fossil fuels being todays "only" resource. :))))

[Neeboopsh]

well you realize you need to create the antimatter from energy, right? ;) that comes from the electric company, who might be using fossil fuels, or hydroelectric, or nuclear. the antimatter you create will be subject to the same energy conservation (and loss as heat, etc) so you still need more energy to produce the antimatter than you'll get from it. but with iter and other fusion projects, antimatter might be a useful fuel due to its energy density and conversion efficiency

[sporeandbryan]

if only i could remember it all

[GalacticLibrary]

So the neutrino is not detected?

I thought the whole point of this experiment was to see what a neutrino divides into? Screw the other particles i want to hear more about the neutrino! :(

[infinit888]

"So the neutrino is not detected?"

Nope and that is precisely why they call it a neutrino, because the particle shows almost no interactions and is therefore very hard to detect.

"I thought the whole point of this experiment was to see what a neutrino divides into?"

It wasn't. The neutrino really isn't that important.

[luiseduardo586]

That thing looks like the "time machine" used in the movie 12 monkeys.. Anyone has seen that movie?

[Bugstomper2]

Don't worry, they'll get a priest to banish the evil from the coils!

[Plutonwolf]

To all the head cases that claim this will make a black hole that will devour the earth I'll make a wager. I will bet you each $1,000.00 to your $100.00 that the earth is just fine afterwards, no all devouring black hole....any takers?  If the world is consumed look me up, I'll be good for it.

[doomkun]

simply, AMAZING

[MounDoGG]

I believe in Bing Bang & i'm Atheist. This great Science is going to show how the Religion is Fake! Because the autors of the sky books didn't think that a Day this science is going to depass the Religion modernity so!

[Superphilipp]

Thank you for once again proving that Atheists can be illiterate dimwits too.

[m0neyhack3r]

If all goes to plan and it works, and we survive, do you think Valve will make a Game about this? Man it's like the real version of Half Life, just hope we don't get no Aliens, or I'm gonna kick some Combine Ass! lol

[niposs]

hahaahah wtf? u were funny =)))

[pikeystudmuffin]

We created the first Black Hole in the UK some years ago, we call it Birmingham. An experiment of integration that went disasterously wrong. BE WARNED!

[haarpcloud911]

God alone knows what this will cause...!!!

9/10/08, 8:30 am Swiss time.

If Satan is actually trying to destroy the universe, I can only say one thing....

They showed us his intent in the Hollywood Movie "Dogma"... Azrael used Bartelbi and Loki to do his dirty work... But Lucifer was claimed as ignorant to their plans...

hmmmmmmmm.....????

I don't believe lucifer is ignorant to any of his own goings on....

But, it was just a movie right?

[No1RobLoweFan]

OR COULD IT??

[lacey72]

when are the particles actually going to collide????????

[alienevil94]

small expllosion or big esplosion?

[snozzcumbers]

this reminds me of half life

[DICKcheneyMASTER]

I HOPE YOU DESTROY YOURSELVES!!

a massive earthquake centered on your facility is in the future,YOU WILL BE PUNISHED SATANISTS!!!

[lacey72]

retard

[murdamooch1]

This is like the video in Jurassic park. kinda freaky.

[buzy08]

danger

[ArcanaIntellego]

Now, I know where my 5,000 euros tax per years gone... I hope it will be a new clean energy for humanity, all for free as to be internet now ( CERN scientists deloveped also the WEB!!!...)

[distancy]

If you live in Switzerland then you pay Swiss franc. Remember Europe is not governed by a single government Polarity.

[pschaffner74]

At least you're not in a country that's spending 12 billion a MONTH (DOD estimate 2007) to fund an illegal oil war and occupation that benefits no one but a handful of sick psychotics.

[JOLUROGA2003]

GREAT VIDEO THANKS !!!!!!!!

[dfnvksdvnvsdkvn]

worst episode ever!

[kenne210]

I still think it's a time machine. I don't think that much money would go into building something that would merely collide particles. But tell some folks that you're building a time machine, and hey... you might get endless funding if they know you're telling the truth.

[qvqvqv23]

I really hope this things works and everything gets destroyed or sucked into a black hole!

Now common....don't you think that would be just a teensy bit funny?

[April0Wants0Truth]

well I hope that it creates a black hole and the good aliens are able to come through it and save us from self destruction LMAO I know, stretching it until it snapped but this video was so boring I had to imagine something to make it better.

[lmjames33]

You should be hoping the LORD will save you not an alien. LOL....... some of you people amaze me. You believe in everything else in the world but you deny the LORD. I guess man believes in what he sees. Hell..I don't see air but I know I am breathing!

[lacey72]

retard.

[distancy]

Nothing to do with God. It's elementary Science. Amazing stuff too.

[cutmylifedotcom]

science and god don't mix very well :)))

[Superphilipp]

He didn't deny any 'LORD' (what does that stand for anyway?)

[Gunnar125]

I stopped watching at 1:06. I really dont want to know anymore. Im fed up with all this. I'll just go and shoot my head off instead. It's much much easier and with the same result =) but faster.

[ntrsptl]

Since space/time & time/space are theoretically Toroidal; and the shape of the project. is a Toroid; and Cern is located near the "Frome" effect; negative ionization and elect.-magnetism; and that its location is between Egypt & Eng., seem to imply an Elitist cover story RUSE (similar to HAARP) to alter the Earth's "Grid" via altering SCW (Torsion - Standing Columnar Waves). Laughing in our faces as obviously as the pyramid on the (ex-US, soon NAU) dollar bill.

[44bit]

wat

[danwill99]

44bit, ignore ntrspti, it's just conspiracy theory rambling.

[nutier]

Great video ! I love it so much .

nutier

[d3xt3rgangstar]

it's the death star. the planet killer. it's altas. where is a scrony jedi and his drones when you need them?

[guruartist]

New hope of a better future for the super rich!! SURE... the rest PREPARE to be, just a poor mirror or Darfur. As we all know and have experimented; from the beginning man-women have been involved in a paradoxal implossive struggle. Altruism was killed the day humans began to... "think"?. Power and glory is what motivates those working on this project, that the results could be used to cure, ignorance, dependance and decease, I would like to be alive to confirm.... when that happens if so.

[nubuu]

great music

[twgoldwood]

wow its huge

[Stopusingoil]

This is where the first steps are being taken on the long journey to distant planets.

This, at the same time, is very dangerous. We are playing with something we dont understand fully, using great amounts of energy. What if we start an unstoppable reaction or create a black hole? Its possible.

Ps: I am not saying this is wrong or bad in any way, just very dangerous.

[LKarabeg]

Actually, the scientists at CERN know quite well what they're doing. Don't worry about black holes, unstoppable reactions or anything like that. The danger is quite definitely limited to the people in the immediate vicinity of certain parts of the equipment, and they are very carefull about that too.

[Stopusingoil]

I don't think they know as much as they let on. I mean, they thought an atom was the smallest particle. then it was electrons protons neutrons, then they turned out to be made of hadrons, quarks and tonnes of other teeny tinier little bits. Im just saying, its not really an exact science and ive seen enough to know that there is a lot left to be discovered.

I do admit the possibility is very slim, but theres still a possibility.

[Bratbaticus]

It just the existance of the possibility is enough to cause panic.

Too much one-in-a-million chance happening in the movies, that's what I say.

[outshine88]

With all due respect, that just isn't accurate. While it may be true that the risk of a catastrophic event at CERN is very low, the fact is that nobody knows the true risk level (or could, given the the probabilistic nature of quantum physics). Furthermore, if one of the disaster scenarios were to play out (i.e., the creation of a sufficiently large strangelet mass, or black hole), the implications would be global in nature, and not "limited to the people in the immediate vicinity."

[lolland30]

from wiki:in which it would be possible to create micro black holes at the LHC[24][25][26] at a rate on the order of one per second. According to the standard calculations these are harmless because they would quickly decay by Hawking radiation. The concern from opposing civil society movements[27] is that, among other disputed factors, Hawking radiation (which is still debated[28]) is

note:

NOT yet an experimentally-tested or naturally observed phenomenon

[jjblt137]

Actually we have been performing the "Will high energy collisions destroy the earth" experiment for a few billion years. High energy cosmic rays having energies much higher than the LHC hit the Earth's atmosphere all the time. These can create anything that the LHC can. So after a few billion years of data taking, the Earth is still here. Conclusion: trust the scientists, not the hype and look forward to a new frontier in particle physics.

[Standard999999]

Q: Why all the concern now?

When funding for the LHC was approved decades ago, scientists believed that there was no reasonable danger. But then scientists discovered a few years ago that the LHC might create something called a micro black hole, and CERN then predicted that it might create micro black holes at a rate of 1 per second. And the creation of just 1 micro black hole could potentially destroy the planet in our lifetime.

[1337spitfire]

sweet

[gmihut]

Thanks Atlas for posting this

[exert2020]

ive been hoping there would be an animation of how this experiment was going to be conducted...and to my surprise i found this...amazing and informative....everything should be animated. ps. has anyone got a link to an animated video of how the universe began and how it evolved including quantum, string, gravity black holes ect. tar

[diavn]

very nice animation of the ATLAS.

[versat82]

wow, the 3D animations are absolutely fascinating, my whole respect to the makers of this film and ATLAS

[sheepwshotguns]

3 quick questions. how much matter do you throw at each other? are we talking individual particles?

how long does it take to process the data from a single collision? seams like a lot of input regardless of the amount of mass used.

[barnett891]

These are single protons colliding (one proton from each direction). Within the protons (which are made of three quarks), it is actually single quarks colliding. Some data is processed almost instantly; if the "event" looks interesting, it is written to disk, and analyzed more carefully later.

We start with about 40 million collision events per second, but the more interesting ones written to disk are about 100 per second. These are the ones left for offline analysis.
