Go Inside the Large Hadron Collider Before it Destroys Earth

The crew of Bad Astronomy Blog was allowed to visit the Large Hadron Collider with video camera in tow. Best to take a look now before the LHC is fired-up in a few months and inevitably destroys the Earth.

Do People Really Think the Earth Will Be Destroyed In August?

Last week we had some maniacs in Hawaii filing lawsuits to prevent the Large Hadron Collider from activating in August, fearing the Earth will be destroyed by an all-consuming black hole, something I'm still not convinced is a bad thing.  To shed some more light on what average people think may or may not happen, Mob Logic took to the streets to get some opinions.

Safety Guide to the Large Hadron Collider

Last week we posted a story involving a lawsuit filed in Hawaii that claims powering up the Large Hadron Collider has the potential to, oh, destroy the earth. In a world where far too many people still believe Barack Obama is a Muslim extremist working for a sleep-cell, there is bound to be a large group of people misinformed about the potential disaster they see coming when scientists flip the switch for the greatest experiment of all time.

In response, CERN has posted a safety guide for the experiment that should calm most fears, though I doubt it will have much impact.

CERN Open to Public - Global Disaster to Follow

Posted by Chris Jensen | Mar. 18, 2008 08:10AM PST | 503 views | 0 comments

Mark April 6th on your calendars, as that's the day the world will most likely come to an end.

CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, will be allowing the general public to visit the Large Hadron Collider. The LHC is the largest particle accelerator ever created and is slated for activation later in the year, when it will attempt to peer into the earliest moments of the universe...or something.

Why am I so down on the public being allowed through the door? Don't you watch movies? This is a recipe for disaster, the details of which you'll find on page 2.
