Gothic.net Community - End of the world on Saturday
I don't particularly believe this but i was just on a game and people wouldn't shut up about it, thought I should post it, see your opinions.

Quote: : This Saturday the most advanced scientific instrument ever built will be switched on in Geneva.
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been built to test current theories for particle physics and scientists will try and recreate the conditions that existed just after the Big Bang by smashing parts of atoms together at high speeds.
When activated the collider could show one of the most elusive particles in our Universe, the Higgs boson, also called the "God particle".
This observation could confirm the Standard Model of physics unifying three of the four known fundamental forces: electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force, leaving out just gravity.
However, other more dangerous particles will also be produced for which searches are planned, such as black holes, and never seen before particles of matter, and even now, the architects of what is being termed a "Doomsday" machine, the U.S.
Department of Energy, Fermilab, the National Science Foundation and CERN are being sued in federal court over fears that this experiment may in fact destroy the planet.
Also our old friend NostradamusÂ’ words ring from the grave with this grim prediction:
Nostradamus quatrain 9 44:
Leave, leave Geneva every last one of you,
Saturn will be converted from gold to iron,
"Raypoz" will exterminate all who oppose him,
Before the coming the sky will show signs.
Did Nostradamus predict the Large Hadron Collider?
Will the Earth disappear into a black hole of its own making?

Haha, wow, I better make this Saturday's party the best fucking party of my life.
|
|
|
Ha. I'm getting my camera ready.
|
|
|
I'm doubting it'll be so bad.
|
|
|
I was wondering when they were gonna turn that thing on ^_^
And we all know the end of the world isn't until 2012.

Nostradamus is seriously overrated.
Believing his predictions is just as silly as fervently believing that Timothy Leary was the incarnation of god.

Hahahahahahaha

There's a little more truth to the latter.

Great, yet another object to fuel my irrational paranoia
|
|
It's honestly hard to think that anyone would believe that.
I mean you could have fears but to actually believe it's definately going to happen seems a bit irrational.
Sorry Canvas Corpsey :S

They are just switching it on this weekend.
They aren't using it to collide atoms until the end of October, so there will be no chance of any issues this weekend.
They just want to see if it works.
|
|
|
Hmm. Any chance they'd postpone colliding the atoms until after I graduate from med school?
|
|
|
Time for a last pina colada?
|
|

Aha people come up with some up with some funny shit.
And there's this video about the LHC some guy has done:

I can't tell if he makes videos as satire or if he believes himself.

Augh...that would just be my luck;
I finally find the man I want to be with for the rest of my life...and then the world ends because of stupid scientists who can't keep their hands from doing stupid crap.
>_<
F&%k.

You will be.
It's just that that tenure of time may be three or four days.

Now I want to listen to that "Virtual Insanity" song by Jamiroquai...

Heh.
Good point.
But we haven't 'done it' yet, and weren't going to until after everything's official.
:/
I would really like to not get sucked into a black hole on Saturday.
Or anytime. Ever.

Wow, cool... Let us wait and see what happens Saturday lol

FFs, black holes don't have infinite gravity, certainly not enough (on the size of the one they'll be making) to 'end the world' unless they're using something about 5 times the size of earth.
The gravity field (which fyi is the bit which rips stuff apart and holds light) fades (distance-wise) very quickly.
It's just the media making a big thing about it.
Do you really think scientists would just let the world explode.
No.

No.
Not intentionally, no.
I guess I just don't have much faith in mankind these days, and I don't trust that most folks know what they're doing...even scientists.
:P

Yes, mad scientists, scientists who have gone crazy messing with these amazing new discoveries, "some men just want to watch the world burn".

On that note I just want to show this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rg9t7uXkLyA
Scientists these days are screwing with alot of freaky stuff, some scientists are working on making human animal hybrids, others are working on trying to work with antimatter.
I could imagine it now, you're walking down the street when suddenly you trip over a dying animal human hybrid, and you fall face first into a single antimatter atom of carbon that somehow hasn't come in contact with any carbon atoms untill you, and you explode(matter explodes when it comes in contact with it's anti-matter version).

It's their jobs; they calculate the gravity fields.
If it exploded the world (which it wouldn't, because it's scientifically impossible) they would die too.
Well, yes, they may be suicidal, but I don't think they'd want to kill all their friends and families.
Also many scientists work on it, so a few would check it.
But, most importantly it's fucking impossible to end the world with a man-made black hole.
I'm also 99% sure a natural one won't because none are near enough;
And there are no huge stars nearby enough to go supernova their way into black-hole-dom.
The 'world' will most likely end when our sun dies and expands and burns earth to a crisp.
Sadly, we have a good few years before that happens, and unless we've become extinct the human race should have managed to colonise another planet.
So s'all good.

They're worried any black holes would grow.
But if any are created they'll disappear too quickly to affect anything which is why they aren't dangerous;
They aren't going to grow.
Fears over this are silly when LHC collisions are at a lower energy than particles at the top of the atmosphere.

Interesting priorities.
You know... you could die tomorrow.
O_0 If you want to "do it", then do it.
