sanctuary 19 Posted June 24, 2008 An interesting documentary i watched on the 1st atomic bomb testing is that some of the people involved thought there was a risk of the chain reaction burning the atmosphere of the planet. But ... they did the experiment anyways. So of course, there is a risk the supercollider will end the world by creating an uncontrollable black hole inside. It would not be the 1st experiment to lead into unexpected result. And i like the expected in the scientist report : Quote[/b] ]The report added: "The expected lifetime [of a mini-black hole] would be very short." Now that's not exactly a way to show a 100% sure thing isn't it But ... they will do the experiment anyways. Yes sometime scientist people are just crazy. I just hope there will not see the unexpected in their expected results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kavoven 4 Posted June 24, 2008 Good damn, I wish people would stop making a fuss about the LHC. No, the world won't end and there will be no Outcast-like-black-hole eating the planet! Ever heard the name Hawking radiation? Thats the radiation that is created when a virtual matter-antimatter double is seperated by the event horizon of a black hole. Due to the separation the virtual matter becomes real and the black holes radiates the so-called Hawking radiation. This means a loss of energy and the black hole evaporates. IF the LHC MIGHT create a black hole, it would be so tiny that it evaporates within femto-seconds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Espectro (DayZ) 0 Posted June 24, 2008 Billions of billions of collisions this size happends every second on earth and in space as we speak (or write) right now. Making artificial collisions isn't any more dangerous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baddo 0 Posted June 24, 2008 No I'm not worried of that. It's a so small-scale system that it's only going to suck in a couple of scientists, at maximum. But, if the end of this planet is coming soon because of that, I'd prefer that we all get sucked into a black hole in one big go to not make anyone feel left behind. It could be interesting to see the black hole from the inside. The explanations the scientists are giving to us are not even nearly enough... I'm more a practical work type of guy than a theorist...

Your observations inside of the blackhole while being crammed into a space less than the size of a pin head (along with everyone and everything else) will be the last of my worries Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Journeyman 0 Posted June 24, 2008 Worrying about the potential side effects of a man made particle accelerator is the least of our worries! You might want to read this new article about climate change: http://ap.google.com/article....1G3IBG0 Then when you've finished that you can read this interesting little article about recent sunspot observations: http://wattsupwiththat.wordpress.com/2008....by-2015 But again we cannot be sure? ... OK then now read all about our evolving energy crisis and where it is gonna take us: http://www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/ Still worried about the LHC?   …If a big black hole does form and swallows us all up it might not be such a bad thing after all!!

Raptor 10 Posted June 24, 2008 I think the end of the world will faster come with a background like it is illustrated in OFP/ArmA/2/Ofp2 as any other science research. ...bomb bomb bomb.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supernova 0 Posted June 24, 2008 The end of the world is close. Just do some research on 2012 and the crystal skull. World War 3 is close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_Tea 0 Posted June 25, 2008 The end of the world is close. Just do some research on 2012 and the crystal skull. World War 3 is close. What crystal skulls? All of them are fakes, made to make money from it around 1920-1930, when you could make much money with such stuff. When a big rock falls from the sky, it`s all over too. That can happen every day, and i`m still not a bit worried. After all we can`t do nothing when the end comes, so what? Stay cool, all the panic will help no one.

Come on ArmA2...heres hoping it gets released before the end comes so I can have some fun before all goes to hell in a handbasket. And here's hoping Ground Branch releases also... and NHL2K9... and I win the lottery... and so on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chops 111 Posted July 1, 2008 Probably isnt but just in case I am off to give my wife one (last) good seeing too! If that's her in your avatar, give her one for me too.
