Myxx Gallente	Posted - 2008.09.06 07:45:00 - [9] common sense nor basic logical thinking are neither common nor basic for 90 percent of all people ive ever come across. this doesn't surprise me. a lot of those people who are afraid id label as being idiots. Its actually quite amusing to watch the reaction from afar, short of the death threats. ---- Originally by: Tishlin Veredici CONCORD is like the UN.

It's more likely the sun will go supernova 45 seconds after you read this post, than the LHC creating a micro-miniature black hole. Sin No it's not. Our sun is too small to reach supernova. Supernova, not enough mass. Nova, certainly. The expansion phase alone would grill earth completely and that's before it blows off the outer shell. As for those death-threats. That's pathetic, even if they manage to create micro-singularities they won't even exist long enough to start affecting the surrounding space, let alone actually destroy anything. Super-colliders like this have been making small quantities of antimatter for years and that hasn't managed to blow anything up and this is less volatile than that.

Plim Gallente Oursulaert Technology Institute	Posted - 2008.09.06 09:07:00 - [20] The fact is that most people are scientifically illiterate. So when the media plays on the possible dangers, people have no understanding of how unlikely they are, or what they really mean. People hear 'black hole' and think the LHC is going to crush us all. I've taken an interest in the LHC, because i've been studying theoretical physics and particle physics for a few months (for fun, seriously). I was talking to someone from CERN, about the mass of black holes, even with the radius of a proton it would have the mass of about 500 million tonnes. So unless they are firing mountain ranges around the LHC, I don't think we need to worry about a black hole of any magnitude. There has been discussion of course that Hawking radiation may not exist, and any micro black hole may not have the predicted entropy. However cosmic particle collisions can reach higher energies and we are not surrounded by black holes. If it was so easy for expansive black holes to be created, the universe would not have got us to where we after the past 13.7 billion years. There would just be a sea of black holes.

The "remake" that is Doom 3 takes place on Mars itself.

Daisho Syndicate	Posted - 2008.09.06 09:39:00 - [22] Edited by: annoing on 06/09/2008 09:40:11 Originally by: Shirley Serious Originally by: article Prof Brian Cox of Manchester University, said: "Anyone who thinks the LHC will destroy the world is a **." lol yes. yes i am The actual quote is this: Prof. Brian Cox phd is the ex keyboard player for D:Ream (Things Can Only Get Better). Quote: The nonsense you find on the web about 'doomsday scenarios' is conspiracy theory rubbish generated by a small group of nutters primarily on the other side of the Atlantic. These people also think that the Theory of Relativity is a Jewish conspiracy... ...... this non-story is symptomatic of a larger mistrust in science, particulary in the US, which includes things like intelligent design ........ but it doesnt affect the conclusion that anyone who thinks the LHC will destroy the world is a tw@t But my favourite scientific quote about the rumours of black-holes and earths destruction via the LHC comes from Patrick Moore from the BBC's Sky At Night Quote:** It is more likely that a spaceship will come to Earth and land on the back of the Loch Ness Monster The thing to remember is that this experiment is only trying to re-create something that already happens on a daily basis here on Earth. Protons colliding at near speed of light speed. Its happens EVERYWHERE all the time. All this experiment is trying to do is trying to re-create that scenario in a controlled fashion so it can be observed to better our understanding.
Terail Zoqial Caldari	Posted - 2008.09.06 09:59:00 - [23] Knowing humanity and how dull reality can be, I reckon nothing interesting will happen at all. The LHC will start up, those thingums will fly around, pound into each other and they will find what they were looking for. End of story.
ReaperOfSly Gallente Lyrus Associates The Star Fraction	Posted - 2008.09.06 10:43:00 - [24] I'm just playing devil's advocate here, so don't flame me. The difference between cosmic ray collisions in the upper atmosphere and the particle collisions in the LHC is that in the LHC, the black hole (assuming one is indeed formed and doesn't evaporate) will be stationary relative to the Earth's surface. Whereas black holes in the upper atmosphere would be moving fast enough to escape Earth's pull, this one wouldn't. It would sink though the floor and orbit the Earth's core slowly accumulating mass as it bumps into and consumes other particles. Of course, it would be thousands of years before we saw any ill effect of this. __________________________ Quote: ...bored, skint, no charter, and a ship that looks like an explosion in a girder factory...
Suze'Rain Caldari	Posted - 2008.09.06 11:45:00 - [25] what worries me is they've built this death ray underground without news of a single british secret agent infiltrating this CERN base, sleeping with a glamorous and lethal double-agent, and having a gunfight whilst descending the Cresta Run in the alps in a ski-fitted Aston Martin... and we've received no demands for a miahem beeeeelion dollars. (all of which is, let's face it, about as likely as a black hole sucking the world in on itself.)
kor anon Amarr Sons Of The Fallen BROTHERS GRIM.	Posted - 2008.09.06 11:53:00 - [26] I think it would be rather amusing if everyone who said its the end of the world would be executed for their stupidity after the LHC goes perfectly well. Dont be sad, its for the good of humanity
Slade Trillgon Siorai Iontach	Posted - 2008.09.06 12:39:00 - [27] Originally by: The TX I really hope they know what they're doing. I have to say, I am honestly slightly concerned that scientists are gonna do something that destroys us one day. Well I would say that mankind is its own worst enemy. Therefore, I would rather the scientists be the ones that destroy mankind, rather then the idiots. But then again, the scientists are often employed by the worlds militaries, which are run by governments of questionable intentions or idiots. So, I guess it is jut a loose loose situation. Might as well have as much fun as possible Slade Originally by: Crumplecorn NerfBat is now known as the WaveMachine. DesuSigs
Slade Trillgon Siorai Iontach	Posted - 2008.09.06 12:50:00 - [28] Addendum: Other scientists have been receiving death threats for years. So pretty much if you look to find answers you are going to ** someone off. Huntingdon Life Sciences Oxford Link "In 2003, when the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a report concluding that numerous major studies in the United States and Europe could find no link between vaccines and autism, some CDC officials left the public health service after receiving death threats."

Sergeant Spot Black Eclipse Corp Band of Brothers	Posted - 2008.09.06 19:43:00 - [30] OLD OLD idea. Larry Niven and friends wrote some stuff on this after attending one of Hawking's lectures (the really good Sci/fi authors love cutting edge science, and often have the science education needed to actually understand the stuff someone like Hawking says). Its an idea that been kicked around for a while, but truth be told, if this thing has been well peer reviewed, and all the folks that actually work on that type of Science say "no chance", I'll take em at their word. Which is precisely the reason I think Global Climate Change is reality and Manmade Climate Change alarmism is pure crap. Play nice while you butcher each other.
