LHC primary stage

He has an enormous brain and that comedian shouldn't make fun of him.

He is amazing to overcome the physical limitations he has. The equivalent of Einstein and has taken physics to a whole new level. I read his book "A brief history of time" but when it got to quantum mechanics it became bizarre - not saying untrue, but bizarre.

He is a physicist, as I sit here, he is a physicist. Look, the world is full of these kind of things - black holes, radiations...radiations.
 
Hey, they have improved his talking computer. It sounds way better than the old one(s).
 
He sounded like a frikkin Dalek with the old one.

I just read a story in the newspaper about this.It said the critics say operating this machine could produce "microscopic black holes".Has anyone ever heard of those?
 
Yeah, probably from the same story you did. The skeptics say they could fall to the center of the earth and pull the whole planet into them, but the advocates of the LHC including Hawkings say it won't happen.

I don't know what a frikkin Dalek is but I bet that was a funny comment.

Less than a 1% chance....that's enough for me to say eek!

Kid "Dad can I have a train set"
Dad "Sure...what could go wrong"


Kid "Dad could I have a train set"
Dad "Sure...what could go wrong"
Kid "Well, there might be a less than 1% chance I could destroy the planet with it"
Dad "...how about a bike?"

LOL - heck of a train set

I hadn't heard the less than one percent part. I wonder how much less than one percent. 0.9 would be frightening. 0000000001 would be moderately alarming and actually any chance at all would be too large.He did say that such collisions are happening all the time due to cosmic radiation (the solar system is full of these kinda things. Sometimes they're happening right under our noses) and they disintegrate immediately.
 
Yes I know about the ones that occurr naturally (and I'm fine with that...seems to be working okay!) but when the big girls and boys play with their toys...and there was a risk (albeit small). So much so, that a lot of scientists tried to go to court to halt the test!
