LHC First Particle Beams Collision Doesn't Obliterate World, Universe
Hey, we are alive! In the end we didn't need any escape pods: The Large Hadron Collider has smashed two particle beams together for the first time. However, the unknown is still ahead of us, as they ramp things up: More » -

OK, Now I'm Nervous About the Large Hadron Collider
I used to think that nothing would happen with the Large Hadron Collider. I even made fun of the nutters saying it's going to destroy the world. After reading CERN Director for Accelerators's latest statement, I'm not so sure: More » -

This Is Simply The Coolest Pop-Up Book We've Seen
It may not overheat in the presence of bread, but this pop-up book has the most accurate paper Large Hadron Collider ever. Figures that a book would make ending the world by firing that bad boy up look fun. More » -

Confirmed: CERN Is Just a Huge Half-Life Level
Plenty of people have given CERN and Half-Life's Black Mesa research facility the This Thing Looks Like That Thing treatment, but this tour of the facility's deepest bowels is just too much. Steam geysers? Endless corridors? Rusty valves? Slime growths? More » -

Large Hadron Collider Scientist by Day, Suspected Al Qaeda Terrorist by Night
Police has arrested a 32-yo physicist at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, linking him to an Al Qaeda terrorist group. Just fraking great. As if we didn't have enough with the morons predicting Apocalypse and the thing failing on its own. More » -

The Real Reason the Large Hadron Collider Keeps Getting Delayed
As a part-time physics nerd, I get excited enough just reading Brian Greene books, so I can't even imagine what the mood's like over at the CERN dorms, where this polite advisory was allegedly posted. More » -

Large Hadron Collider's Restart Button To Be Pressed By Tom Hanks
Too good to be true: because his character in Angels and Demons saves the Vatican from being destroyed by antimatter stolen from CERN, Tom Hanks will be flipping the switch to restart the LHC. More » -

Postponed LHC Restart Could Wrestle "God Particle" Discovery From CERN
Scientists are racing to to discover the Higgs boson particle first. That's right – CERN isn't the only one looking, and its Large Hadron Collider might be upstaged by a U.S. accelerator yet. More » -

LHC Restart Postponed Further, Won't Attempt To Swallow Earth Again Until September
Those anxiously awaiting the restart of the most complex machine ever built on earth will have to wait a little longer, as CERN today announced they were pushing back Large Hadron's restart to September. More » -

Photos Show What 10 Megajoules Worth of Damage To the LHC Looks Like
CERN's photos of the LHC's multi-million-dollar ouchies aren't as dramatic as the Earth being swallowed by the Singularity, but they show the results of a single solder joint's failure on the world's most complex machine. More » -

CERN's 'Gordon Freeman' Employee Receives Crowbar, Starts Murdering
Do you remember that photo of the Large Hadron Collider that showed an employee looking suspiciously like Half Life's Gordon Freeman? The clowns over at Reddit sent him a crowbar, a headcrab and a book, allowing him to go to town on the alien infestation. The very happy alien infestation, by the looks of that photo. See him in action after the jump. [Reddit via Kotaku] More » -

LHC's $21 Million Single Joint Failure is the Most Expensive Soldering Error in Soldering History
The Large Hadron Collider, the world's most complicated machine that was felled by a single faulty solder joint last month, won't be back until summer 2009 now, at the earliest—a few months later than CERN last speculated. And at what cost? $21 million in repairs. A drop in the bucket when the full $10 billion budget is considered, yes, but let's hope some of this dough is spent on a bit more magnet-meltdown-preventing solder redundancy. [AP] -

Large Hadron Collider Has Black Hole Button
Though the Large Hadron Collider didn't kill us when those crazy CERN scientists closed their eyes, said a prayer, recited a few theorems and switched it on for the first time, the secret is that it could have killed us. When they built the collider, the scientists installed a black-hole creation button. (The button is real, but it doesn't actually do anything.) More »
