Doomsday?

Quite coincidentally it's the very boson you're referring to that they want to find. It's the prime suspect in the question "why does stuff have mass" and how mass transcends to gravity. You may have confused it with the neutrino which is well-documented nowadays.

maybe, i have a hard time learning all the vocabulary and then spitting it back out without looking it up. the way i read it from the wikipedia articles on both the device and the experiment, it seems like it will answer a lot of questions, but in the form of asking more (like when they discovered quarks). although i remember it having to do with relating mass and other forces, i thought it left the relation to gravity up in the air.

Who gives a shit? We're stuck to the Earth. We're not floating off any time soon. How about we stop global warming before we figure out where mass comes from.

And before I get called a hippie, don't solve global warming, solve hunger, cure Cancer, or AIDS (if anyone cares anymore, "Eric Clapton couldn't come, we got Jimmy Buffet",) or any of the problems actually affecting the human race.

and when it works, they'll have accomplished the amazing task of verifying their hypothesis and finding that pesky boson -- all to the tune of an ungodly amount of time and money.

well i guess they'll go to any lengths to prove a theory that as far as i can tell, no one's refuting.

i didn't look at that video, but i have been reading up on this for a bit. even learned more than i wanted to about all those things they skipped in physics. i didn't think it was to test the "big bang" but to prove the existance of some neutral boson that should exist in theory, but not in the physical world outside of the big bang (requires too much energy, highly unstable). but it was like a month ago so maybe i'm just confused. That and to find the relationship between weak, EM, and Strong (nuclear) forces.


Too bad after all these years, they still don't know how gravity fits into the equation, and that's the first force we found.

I was expecting a black hole that would destroy the planet. Since it failed I'll have to wait for 2012 now.

i am looking forward to this party already.

[Troll King]

Not yet it isn't. They've only tested the ability to fire particles in either direction. The real thing will be when they do it at the same time to force a collision.

darn thing was a success

i wish they would find the solution to the universe any time soon, following this stuff gets more and more confusing.

I have avoided this LHC rap for a while now, expecting it to be terrible. But it's actually really good. I hope the LHC will find something unexpected.

I first read the title of that vid as: Large Hardon Rap.

Are you related to that fellow with the sign on the street corner?
