In the coming months the most complex scientific instrument ever built will be switched on. .The Large Hadron Collider promises to recreate the conditions right after the Big Bang.

Some scientists believe there is the slight chance of a black hole or "stranglets" being created causing catastrophe of epic proportions, mabye destroying the planet!!

If that happens we'd never know about it, now would we?

Hell, yeah. What a way to go...we'd be on the Galactic News, Sapient Interest section...

It just as likely that we would all experience 20 lifetimes worth of unimaginable pain.

...so if this is the standard model, nothing to worry about and they should go ahead with it. aweyes

The unproven standard model which someone dreamed up.

nothing can go wrong then

I think it's worth a shot. It is probably easier than acquiring a flux capacitor, a delorian and plutonium.

I'm gonna be the first to call it now.

They are gonna fire this thing up, and open a portal to a dimension where giant monstrous tendrils come out and kill them all

there really isn't any possibility of the LHC causing a blackhole that would be problematic for us

even in the almost impossibly unlikely chance that one is created, the EXACT same theory people are using to say they may form also predicts that they would be so unstable and weak that upon eating 1 or 2 protons, they will dissipate. (I don't know the technical terms, sorry )

**** yeah black mesa!

Isn't Hawking currently saying that microscopic blackholes occur on and through the earth anyway...?

If they are that widespead and common a phenomenon and are a part of a natural quantum thing that we dont totally understand, I do wonder of the wisdom of provoking something that could in theory mess with space/time space time.

It'll be interesting to see at least what results they get.

Everything warps space time by virtue of existing.

the chance of anything like the torrent of singlets destroying the Universe is so minuscule that its just ignorant to be worried about it. If you'll recall, when they set off the first atomic bomb, there were fears that the explosion would be so hot, it would cause a chain reaction that would ignite all the oxygen in the atmosphere... and that didn't happen.
Plus, like some said earlier, even if it did happen, its not like you would know it. the universe would pretty much be destroyed instantly.

On a side note, i think it was Hawaii (or some other state government) that was pursuing legal action to get the LHC shut down to save all of man kind because of the "chance" that this could happen.

They're unified enough to share important information and peer-review data in order to see if it is correct. And not to mention there are oftentimes organizations for different branches of science. So yeah, it is rather unified, which isn't really surprising. You solve things quicker if you have more than one mind working on a problem.

I don't think you understand that I'm in no way anti-scientific, nor has anything that I have said in this thread been unscientific.

Its not, its the name given to a process of study. Scientists are not all the same, they do not all represent the same ideals or beliefs and they most certainly are not "winning" anything because they are not in competition with anything, competition would make their research unscientific. Most notable scientists tend to be proved right long after they are dead.

Well it's the theory of disproving something, or proving something, isn't it? That then gets turned into the word 'win', as if there was some kind of battle. It's a very odd thing to be annoyed about, perhaps you ought to chill out a bit and realise that synonyms for 'prove' and 'disprove' expand when used by a consensus.

It's the flip side of religion who it's competing against, and it's winning by a wide margin. There's room enough for the two at the moment but with the advances we're making with science who knows? Religion hasn't moved forward in 2 thousand years.

Yeah.

Here's the thing though. Either Religion is right, and God eventually comes and magically makes everything all pure and good again. Or, religion is wrong, fake, and... via Science we inevitably create something that kills us all. That's if we don't taken out by a meteor or some natural disaster.

You realize that one push of a button would create a nuclear war and annihilate most of the life on this planet, right? One computer virus. One glicth in the system in just the right spot, and it's all over.

And it's hardly "Religion vs. Science", only some parts of it, I.E. Creationism and Evolution. Otherwise Religion and Science co-exist quite well. I'm religious but I'm not anti-Science. I'm not even anti-creationism. I just think it's just as stupid to think that advances in Science will "invetibly save us all!" as it is to think some all powerful all knowing being will swoop down and end all suffering.

The denser the mass, the more it occurs. You can have a nebula that weighs 1000 solar masses, but it won't warp space time very much because it isn't very dense.

A black hole's density is infinite.

On the matter of humans wiping themselves out with bombs or disease etc. When I assume that there is no God, I find a strange comfort in knowing that the Earth will continue to live on for billions of years after we are gone.

There's already a blackhole anywho. It's called the Religion Forum.

But many don't enter the vortex of dangerous space/time/mental awareness/thought capacity continuum of never ending illnesses substantiated by endless streams of delusion.


I just don't know why?

so, just a reminder

the same theory which people are using to claim a black hole may form, also predicts they will be too unstable to absorb even a noticeable amount of matter.

So fear not, unless you are predicting that only half the theory is correct, which makes no sense.

anyone got a update on this?

Any black hole opening on Earth would instantly destroy the entire solar system. Hmmm sounds a lot more ambitious than the reactor that merely created a temperature of 30 times hotter than the core of the Sun...

Is this where they are hoping to discover the graviton?
My friend keeps talking about it as a possible theory of everything, but I can't find much info either way on the intrawebs. (as far as proof. the theory is on wikipedia)

I'm just prepping for the Xen invasion that will follow.

Thats it. We're ****ed.

I wonder if they will find the "Higgs", I personally doubt it. Its probably a lot deeper and more complicated as the scientists think.

I hope they find something though, quite intriguing stuff

they will find something..lol

It would be quite funny to think it happened on the eve of a Black Man becomming President of the US...

Sounds like BS to me. Human beings give themselves way too much credit.

Ok so seriously, it's just the biggest particle accelerator made evar. Quit worrying. There's a good chance that it'll further benefit our scientific knowledge, and if it doesn't discover anything, then whoo, we still collided some particles at near light speed, yo!

And as stated by other people before, if it did create a blackhole, it would be a little pussy version that ends up doing nothing more than dissipating in a small flash of gamma radiation. Your typical planet-consuming blackholes are usually of exceptional mass, as in solar masses.

Update:-

CERN Announces Start Date for Hadron Collider
First circulating beam on September 10, 2008,
at the injection energy of 450 GeV (0.45 TeV).

What can we get if everything plans out right, we open a small black hole then what?

edit: i just wiki it i thought my head stated too hurt someone put it in lamins terms plz

Should we risk creating a black hole?

this is off topic and dumb, but do we own the moon lol? i mean we where the first to land on it like the old say finders keepers.

but to someone outside of the event horizon it would "appear" that we would never hit the singularity because the gravity is so strong that the light we would emit cannot reach escape velocity.

I'm no physicist but I think a black hole would dissipate over time as long as it doesn't get fed any matter to gobble up.

I lol'd at this.

Look, if it opens a black hole, and that's a large if, it's going to be a microscopic black hole due to the amount of matter they're slamming into each other. The event horizon would be an inch in diameter at most. Objects a meter away or more won't even feel its gravitational effects.

They've written whole papers on the LHC's safety. It's no big deal - and if it works, they might even be able to put together a Grand Unified Theory.

The benefits far outweigh the risks.

No one actually knows what will happen.

No ones created a black hole before, or even been near one. In fact they are just theoretical in a factual sense.

So looks like were about to gain some new experience.

Actually someone on the 2nd or 3rd page already posted a link saying that we have created mini black holes in labs before.

I didn't read the article or even click on the link, but if you're interested...

if your interested grab a chic and a beer and party till the end! really just keep googling everyone!

I hate it when people say this.

No they don't. I give a jack shit about what new opportunities in science can open up from this. **** science.

I think it's a to big of a risk, the outcome for this could be horrible and something we might not be able to fix

do scientists have the choice of not having you benefit from advances in technology?

If we had the ability to create a blackhole...we wouldnt have any energy problems on this planet.

That's not true. It's not compatible.

My sources tell me it is.

Can you link?

I know that there's a link between energy and dark hole, however, I,ve never heard of creation of energy by it in all my years of science. Or I might be mistaken, that is a probability. It has been awhile since I've looked at it.

Now that I think of it.............you cannot make a black hole...............hahahaha.

This must be some joke.

Mandos: I doubt it'd be possible to harvest the energy that a black hole creates, considering that even electromagnetic radiation doesn't escape.

I don't know for sure. But that'd be a sensible conclusion.

Pfft, a possible conclusion...........i.e. no black hole...haha
