chbare Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 Any wannabe physicists on this site will appreciate the newest update from CERN. The large Hadron Collider is up and running again. After only a couple of days, proton beams are focused and colliding at relatively low energy levels. Hopefully, levels of around seven trillion electron volts can be reached. Hopefully, the next year will be exciting and I would love to hear in the near future that the Higgs Boson has been identified. Take care, chbare. 1

Just Plain Ruff Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 It was nice knowing you all. Farewell cruel wo
HERBIE1 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 Here's an interesting web feed from the LHC. http://www.cyriak.co...hc-webcams.html LMAO On the plus side, I guess we won't have to worry about Heath Care Reform anymore...

chbare Posted November 24, 2009 Author Posted November 24, 2009 I find it rather interesting that many people actually believe we can create micro black holes and open and destabilize other dimensions. We are talking about smashing particles smaller than the smallest known atom (hydrogen). In fact we are essentially talking about smashing protons (hydrogen nuclei). Assuming humans could actually create a micro black holes (insert allot of imagination) with LHC technology, I can only assume these objects would be so small and unstable, they would emit more Hawking radiation than the energy they could possible acquire and promptly "fizzle" away. The reality being, we cannot safely transport a human to our moon and we have yet to shoot an object out of our own solar system. I have a very hard time thinking we could actually create objects we cannot even explore beyond indirect observation and mathematical assumptions. Please correct my statements as I am not exactly a physicist. Take care, chbare.

chbare Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 The Voyager's may end up being the first objects to leave the solar system; however, this has yet to occur. Take care, chbare.
