Einstein will NOT be proven wrong. more » jepzilla: That's a bizarre comment. I wasn't aware that anybody was seriously suggesting that people were traveling back in time to sabotage the LHC with breads... more » Lizard_King: HOWEVER, If time travel attempts to sabotage the LHC are successful, and the LHC is never properly fired up, then the LHC can never destroy the world.... more » ripfire: Well that explains why we're not getting any visitors from the future! more » clR3vv: It looked more awesome in angles and demons. more » Nick: let me know when the set the LHC for ludicrous speed. and i thought i told you to never call me on this wall. more » DustyButt™: I'm in the little town right next to the LHC.

I Don't Like LHC Scientist's Quotes That Start With "If It Does Destroy the World..."
It's good to know that quotes like this—by Dr Paul Jackson, a particle physicist looking for the Higgs boson on the LHC Atlas experiment—come with a context: More » -

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 » -

Large Hadron Collider Circulating Particle Beams Again
No, it's not going to destroy the world. But the collection of photos of the LHC at the Big Picture is a great reminder that this might be the most impressive piece of machinery humanity has ever built. [Big Picture] -

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 » -

LHC Roars to Life, Begins Task of Destroying Universe Yet Again
Christ, didn't we kill this thing already? Repairwork on the Large Hadron Collider is making serious progress, with a test run of particle beams already completed. Scientists are hoping to attempt full world-ending experiments next month. More » -

She's Got It Where It Counts, Kid: LHC Hyperdrive Testing a Possibility
Parallels between the Large Hadron Collider and the beloved Millennium Falcon are becoming increasingly clear. Both take a bit of work to get off the ground; both feature rogue agents; and soon both could employ hyperdrive technology. 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 » -

Convincing Your Girlfriend to Put Out on Film Because of the LHC Doomsday Is a Bad Idea
Today we learn that you can get a frigid girl to not only put out, but to do it on film by playing the Large Hadron Collider card. (Baby! No one will see that video since the world is ending!) 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 » -

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 »
