Warning! Use of this particle accelerator may result in "a black hole could form, and then suck in everything around it," according to cosmologist Martin Rees. "The second scary possibility is that the quarks would reassemble themselves into compressed objects called strangelets."
"That in itself would be harmless. However under some hypotheses a strangelet could, by contagion, convert anything else it encounters into a new form of matter, transforming the entire earth in a hyperdense sphere about one hundred metres across."

Oh. I didn't read on.
"The third way that particle accelerators could destroy the Earth, according to Reese, is by a "catastrophe that engulfs space itself".
"Empty space - what physicists call the vacuum - is more than just nothingness. It is the arena for everything that happens. It has, latent in it, all the forces and particles that govern the physical world. The present vacuum could be fragile and unstable."
"Some have speculated that the concentrated energy created when particles crash together could trigger a 'phase transition' that would rip the fabric of space. This would be a cosmic calamity not just a terrestrial one.""
Well that doesn't sound quite as bad does it |

How do they know this?
At one point In history, they said you would die if you travelled at 70mph. Until there is factual proof, I don't believe all I hear. Mind you, if there is any truth in it. Then it may be too late.... |

I was going to say... I'm not keen on the whole factual proof argument |

I don't believe in any of the human invented god stories either
I think it most counterproductive that certain humans who have links with Science speculate wildly and promote their imagination to the media
The speculative nonsense they spout discredits all the meticulous and diligent science that is conducted daily
It needs to be made crystal clear that just because
A person who practices or understands science (a scientist ) makes a statement or expresses their imagination or guesses , that statement is NOT science or scientific
Science is a method of validating, collecting , and understanding data to avoid humans being sold snake oil x |

OP are you a time traveller? All this was news a few years ago for most of us, then they turned it on discovered particles and created lots of mini black holes and anti matter, and guess what.... yep the scare mongers were right the entire universe disappeared up it's own arsehole, and were extremely surprised to discover the God entity turned out to be a cuckoo clock....  |

Well the God turning out to be a cuckoo clock thing was pretty bad... caused quite a lot of upset in the microsecond before we all blinked out of existence...  |

"Brian Cox dismissed the black hole story as complete bollocks.
He's like you ... but a little bit more spacey"
I wanted to add a really inappropriate Kevin Spacey joke here. |

Love Brian Cox. He was great in The Escapist. Great gritty actor. But he clearly knows fuck all about physics |

"Just clarify this universe was formed from a black hole from another universe. That’s was proven via CERN and the LHC.
How exactly? "
How did it happen or how have they proved it ? |

No, it probably wasn't, and if it was there is no way to prove it. |

Er, it’s been proven. Conclusive proof, they’ve formulated the data and shown the results. Fascinating read. But they’ve yet to explain how the other universe started. |

Nope, they have not proven anything, instead they have created questions about previous theory, which there isn't yet an answer too. |

Yes it was. There was a video on YouTube that they saw. And the interwebs never lies so there's your proof, lol. |

Its hard to listen to these scientists when all they talk about being sucked off into a big hairy black hole..
especially when you haven't had any for years.. Bastads !!! Bring it with your large hardon collider, lets all go out with one massive big bang !!
Probably be me who has to toss off on my own just to get it started for you guys... |

Mini black holes could be produced in the LHC, but all black holes dissipate due to Hawking radiation, and mini black holes would disappear almost instantaneously due to this phenomenon. You need a star-sized mass to produce a black hole that is fairly stable. We're hit all the time by cosmic rays with 1000s of times more energy than is produced in the LHC - which is only equal to the kinetic energy of 10 mosquitoes. Global warming and nuclear war seem more likely threats than CERN. |

“There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.”

When they set the first atomic bomb off, they werent sure if the nuclear reaction would stop at all and not end up destroying everything. So it’s not the first time. |

You need to read the papers dude, it’s all there in black and white. |
