LHC Discussion (supposed end of the world)

[Rixion]

so you couldnt escape out of it if the planet is half in-half out.

The seven who voted Yes are idiotic.

[Minstrels]

What time is it, can't wait.

Once you pass the event horizon there is no escape.

How is no escape it sucks or sqeezes you into something or no gravity, gah im dumb lool x

A blackhole is a singularity, anything sucked in is destroyed. Its gravity sucks you in and you get crushed to death.

I don't think the world is going to end, but there is no proof that it isn't. No one has ever fired particles at each other this fast before so no one will know what will happen. A few hundred years ago scientists thought that if something was lighter than air it couldn't fly, but now there are planes that weigh 17 tons. So you can't really say "No. Its not going to happen".

But the gravitational pull is so strong you wouldn't even know it was happening.

[Rixion]

Sounds scary, thanks for the info. x

I saw one on a tv program once like 3 years ago

You can, because science has proven that nothing disastrous is going to come from the LHC. In this world of health and safety gone mad, if there was a genuine chance at destruction, the project would have been abandoned. Numerous colliders have been active over the years, and in a couple of decades time, an even larger hadron collider will be in use. Those saying "the world is going to end" are the sensationalistic media, because more often then not, the truth does not sell a good story.
