LHC-Large Hadron Collider [1/3]

[treevis83]

Why were there so many incidents that stopped thier first testings. Look it up. The inconcievable anomalies that happened were interesting

[ytmoog]

@treevis83

"inconcievable anomalies"

Actually they went far smoother than most new particle colliders. So hardly 'inconcievable'.

These are the standard kinds of issues when working on such vast and complicated systems,

[jared4wally]

thay said on december 21 2012 it beging the lhc.

[bulletproofcourier]

good video, fascinating stuff.

I think, it's can be another Chernobyl!!!

[ninjamaritz]

The total energy involved when the particle beams collide is roughly what you get when you clap your hands once, roughly speaking.

Not quite Chernobyl.

[Cougar333]

True, but it happens thousands of times per second. ;-P

[detibry]

still not enough. key word: energy density

[Cougar333]

Believe me, I wasn't implying that it could happen. There was a soviet man who survived a direct hit from a particle accelerator... He's blind in one eye, it burnt a hole through his skull and scalp, he's deaf in one ear with nothing but a constant and unpleasant sound, the left side of his face is paralyzed, and he suffers from seizures... But, he lived!

[Sherifme1020]

@ninjamaritz it less than that, more like the energy required to knock a book over when its upright.

[TheDrummerBarnes]

@ninjamaritz the total energy when two beams of protons collide is 14 Tev. if you take the energy of a mosquito which is roughtly 1 Tev and place the same energy in an area that is a million million times smaller, this gives you a rough idea of the energy involed when the two beams of protons collide

[rugbytlse]

Come on, you don't even know what you are talking about. First thing, get some scientific qualifications and then you'll be able to talk.

[Sherifme1020]

@Markarone ur really dumb. The total energy of the collision doesnt even make enough energy to power a lightbulb for a second. The reason that LHC is no gonna blow up and kill us all is becos the particles are tiny. and even at 0.95 times the speed of light, one of them wouldnt even be able to knock over a dictionary.

[flipponzin24]

WHEW...Thank God we're still alive=:) I didn't know about the LHC test run up until computer science class this morning. But I sure pray that these crazy scientists know what they're doing, because it sounds pretty intense. Almost like Pandora's Box... Either this could lead some great discoveries beyond the real, no discoveries at all, or the end of the world as many seem to say. Whether it succeeds or fails, I'M NOT WATCHING.

[justcat1234]

"Just look at it! its blue!" These people are crazy...

[Faulkses]

My goodness people. If you are that worried, don't be... It's all part of your Gods plan, and if not, and we do all die.

boo hoo.

Think of it as being a martyr, for some one smarter than you will every be.

You go to Heaven, YAY!! You are just gone.. oh well.

[LuisCureMendez]

Haven't you realized that inside the general structure shape of the Hadron Collider, there are three sixes shapes? "666"..... Look well, they seem to be 3 sixes assembled. I got the chills when I realized it.

[DesertHamster]

nope, we're still here... =p What a suprise eh?

[wrrrrrrrrrr]

Prepare for Unforseen Consequences

[GruppoGara]

i saw somewhere cause thay done today just a test .... and tha big lunch it will be in 21 october....... but this creation is incredible .... i am allmoust crying!!!

[daniel246]

i bet nothing will happen, just find even more particals.

[boxa888]

about 110 yrs ago nikola tesla discovered high energy particles called cosmic rays,they were called radiant energy.the lhc creates similar particles in the collider.tesla used their minute energies to run small lighting device as a detection device.i have shown his patented work as the first scientist to find cosmic rays and do the very first particle collisions in history,mainly collision of particles on metal plates,using electron beams this was in 1889 I SHOW YOU HOW TO BUILD ONE FOR YOURSELF

[lanceawatt]

Now thats some crazy space age sci-fi shit!

[thest3alth]

The media should of kept the quiet. I wanna die without knowing.

[Jonitova]

The end is near people lol

[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.

[fireamusmus]

errrm did you see china??? and burma???

[TOMASASX]

They say it will be open'd at Sunday, 6 April

[tiove]

aha just went on the cern site and it is up to date apparently everything is looknig on course and will be switched on soon

[tiove]

has it been swithced on yet there has been nothing on the news?!?!?!

[smashingpunk]

Know anywhere I can find the results of the May 2008 tests?

[DaughterOfVampire]

There's another one soon I think.
