End Of The World Wednesday?

Re: End Of The World Wednesday?

Well, it's Wednesday in Geneva.

Btw, I'm pretty sure they've done these experiments before.
I don't think anything bad is going to happen.

How can people predict a black hole will occur if they know more about pickles? ._.

I've always been interested in black holes, something that caught my attention. I've never really learned much about one, because we have no idea what they look like (since they absorb light apparently) and because they don't obey to the laws of physics we know. So how can we suppose there is a 0.000000001% or however little chance one will occur, since we know so little about them?

Before the curse of statistics fell upon mankind we lived a happy, innocent life, full of merriment and go and informed by fairly good judgement. - Hilaire Belloc

Statistics are abstract. How can we base opinions on them?

-looks at watch-
Is the world over already?

Re: End Of The World Wednesday?

yeah if I recall correctly a black hole only occurs very rarely when a large star explodes. Not when scientests play with toys

Apparently no atom smashing just yet, October 21st is another story
Edit: This thread needs a title change before i make a new one thats more fit for this worldwide science "experiment" a.k.a "Death??"

Blablabla, seriously, that's just pathetic, we're not gonna die

Re: End Of The World Wednesday?

You know, I don't know too much about this stuff, so this may seem like a dumb question. I am wondering if, although I'm sure it would be really expensive, something like this could be used as a weapon. Maybe something like this that doesn't loop around, but rather sends the beam at a designated location. It sounds powerful enough, but is it a possibility?

ORLY?

xD


Anyway, I highly doubt any of us dieing on October 21st, and I'm really excited for the results of the experiment. ^__^

Re: End Of The World Wednesday?

I knew nothing would happen, But by the time I was halfway through double Media Studies, I wish it did

They didn't fire any atoms today, and they won't until October. Anyways, if this is true it might take a wile to find out is a black hold was created.

Re: End Of The World Wednesday?

Well the media sure did fail us on this one. Blew it way out of proportion.

Re: End Of The World Wednesday?

The media did nothing from what I've seen. In fact, a few stations talked about the over exposure of this. High energy collisions start in a month or so, but that doesn't even matter as we aren't in any harm.
