So today they fired up the largest proton accelerator in history. This 27km tube is designed to accelerate hydrogen atoms that have stripped of their electrons, turning them into just protons, to 99.99999% of the speed of light. It then will send these protons around a the circle in opposite directions using magnetics and colliding them at 4 locations. Sounds cool!
They hope to find out more about the origin of mass, and matter by recreating a "big bang" like energy. They are also hoping to create mini black holes, so small that not even an atom could be sucked in, and lasting for so short a time, that it "supposedly" won't hurt the earth.
This sure sounds cool, and there are more scientists and countries involved to overlook a significant danger. But one can get very apprehensive that if this goes dreadfully wrong, destruction on a biblical scale is likely. So bend over and kiss your butt goodbye!
I hope that they find some awesome and cool stuff. Even if they "prove" crazy other dimensions, it just goes to show that this creation of God's isn't just a surface level playground, but a multifaceted.... (searching for a word)... thing.
This was just a preliminary test. No collisions yet. So you still have plenty of time to get your bucket list done.
