These videos are really good about what they are going to study and debunking the worries. Check it out. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25356219/
They must also label Einstein a crackpot, because Einstein always rejected the idea of the black hole, claiming in his research papers and other writings that it is not physical, and that singularities in the field nullify the theory of General Relativity.
...So LIGO and its international counterparts such as the AIGO in Australia and VIRGO in Europe, are all destined to detect nothing; and the black hole is not predicted by General Relativity.
Sure ... and the Titanic was unsinkable ...
I wonder how many accidents started with the words : 'but it was 100% safe to ... '.
Just because the chance of exploding into nothiness is next to 0 in probability does not mean we're safe.
If we were 100,000000000% sure of the results then there'd be no reason to conduct the experiment to begin with.
I'd rather have the world end because mother Nature decided our luck had run out instead of a bunch of scientists trying to 'understand everything'.
Some things really should be left to theory.
They can't know a **** what's behind it all, it is "unknown sector" and they do better if they don't dig with it, because any dig so far has failed and badly.
This is all bull****, taht thing should be stopped. Not to mention who knows what goes wrong and if terrorists won't take control of this.
What the hell are you talking about? I haven't seen any blackholes destroying the world or CERN experiments going apeshit so far.
We don't know for sure what is going to happen I think, it can do anything else, I doubt it will destroy whole world or something, but something bad can happen while they will be doing it. Or maybe it will destroy Geneve, some explosion perhaps when it fails or who knows.
Why should the collision of particles cause a black hole to form anyways(we need mass!!!)? All people claiming that this could happen should back their claims up(or read up on the theories of black holes and then come back informed).
As much as I disagree with ilkman(but dont bother to argue) he's backing up his claims and giving people the chance to argue specifically. :tup:
