I highly doubt it.. but here's a page where you can check if it has yet..

lol, make sure you check out the source code also :P
lmao :D
I've heard about that. They did it on the 10th.
I don't belive I'm going to die, and even if I was going to die I'd rather live out my last days rather than freaking out during my last moments :]
>They did it on the 10th.
They did turn it on, checked all the systems and did no experiments involving particle collisions.
I've mentioned this above.
This reminds too much of the half life series. and everyone stop fucking with particle accelartors and black holes.
yay, headcrabs^^
All i can say is that people say we are going to die all the time, such as on 6-6-06, but those never happened. It is very easy to say that we wont die based on past experiences. Although, as i respect the people's worries that we are going to utterly die, i dont believe them.
its easier to live in denial
I've said this more times than I want to count: all doomsday theories and conspiracies are false.
That includes the LHC.
There have been many particle-accelerator experiments carried out before the LHC, and there will be many after. None have so far annihilated the world.
If we take the theory of hawking radiation, any black holes created will dissipate before they can do anything.
This is theoretical physics; nobody knows exactly what will happen. This could be the best idea mankind has ever had, for all we know.
Additionally, many of your videos contradict eachother. One of them was even pro-LHC.
The webcam link you posted was also fake, and I've seen it on the forums already.
You're scaring yourself.
>There have been many particle-accelerator experiments carried out before the LHC, and there will be many after. None have so far annihilated the world.
LHC is twice as powerfull as anything used before
>This could be the best idea mankind has ever had, for all we know.
or the end of it all
>One of them was even pro-LHC.
so what?
Well:
According to STEVEN HAWKING (is that how you spell his name?)
Well he says that,
Black holes will self deteriorate itself, so if a black hole that size (a particle size) it would self deteriorate and dissapear before anything distructive happens.
So if were going to believe something to this scale, it might aswell be steven.
The fact that anything bad was going to happen was made up by a group of scienctists that have less field knowlage than the more experienced scienctists who are saying nothing will happen.
And thus, the internet/media got a hold of this info, and always went to the bad side of it.
And they have only smashed 1 particle so far.
and their starting to smash protons in october.
>According to STEVEN HAWKING
his theory has not been proven, no one has seen HAWKING RADIATION work
he himself has doubts about it
>The fact that anything bad was going to happen was made up by a group of scienctists that have less field knowlage than the more experienced scienctists who are saying nothing will happen.
the difference between pro-lhc and anti-lhc scientists is that the first have their lives connected to the project. THEY DO NOT WANT TO THINK OF THE DANGERS, IT DOESN'T MATTER TO THEM.
>and their starting to smash protons in october.
at a very low energy (less than 1 tEv), nothing would happen in october
Alright, I'm basing my opinions on things I have heard, and I'm a natural sceptic, so bear with me. First off, I'm tired of people screaming about how we are all going to die. It's possibe that all the black hole hype was created by some jumped up teens, and it spread from there into the global worry it is today, with little basis on fact.
Secondly, Black holes and stranglets sound like the same thing, pretty much. Also, no-one has ever even seen a black hole, black holes are JUST A THEORY. That's all they are. Just like stranglets, just a theory based on shaky observations. They may exist, or there may be something else.
Thirdly, if the scientists discovered something that WOULD kill us all, chances are they would at least leave the team, since killing all of humanity is not a desirable thing to have on your resume.
Fourthly, it's just hype, probably. I heard people saying that we were all going to die when it was turned on. I'm not dead yet. I hear people going on about infinite energy sources, but that gets no media coverage.
I hear people going on about Global Gay Warming, and how we're all going to die, when in actual fact, the icecaps are slightly thicker this year than last year, and the temperatures are averaging out.
My point is that I've heard so much media hype that I find it really hard to believe that something a group of scientists created over the course of twenty years to discover more about the big bang, which is in itself just a theory, will kill us all by creating a black hole. When the universe was created, I assume that there was not just a black hole. Maybe there is one at the center of the universe, which will suck us all in at the proverbial end of time.
MAYBE we are just someone elses hadron collider experiment. What if we end up creating an entirely nec universe?
Or what if we discover a bunch of vaugley useful particles?
What if we discover how to cure stupidity?
What if we discover nothing new?
These are all possibilities, soe of them more likely than creating a black hole. Therefore I can conclude that we are not going to die by the end of the year. Hell, the haydron may even give us immortality, but I doubt it.
The day we die, I'm gonna scream "OH SHI-" *dead*
lol
It saddens me that millions of euros, that could be used to feed/educate/heal millions of people, are instead used in a scientific experiment that might or might not destroy it all.
Of course, Dubai's spendings make me even sadder (search it in wikipedia and you'll probably understand me)
oddly enough as much as this scares me
I am thinking of the half life universe and what happened when someone started messing with certain things. Its scary yes, but I am worried about more things other then black holes.
I think a internet petition should be made...
Not that it would stop them but It would work if at least say 1/5 of the world objected
Cool.
Mmm, yes. Although I doubt that the LHC will find the Higgs Boson particle, or destroy the earth, I do believe that it will create the most spectacular laser light show that six billion dollars can buy.
I seriously doubt it will do anything good or bad for the people themselves, but maybe I'm wrong. Maybe you're wrong, and maybe the scientists are wrong. Perhaps they will find the God Particle, and everything will be fine and in three years they'll create something even larger to explain the questions that will be inevitably raised when the God Particle is discovered. Obviously, they'll have to search for something even more stupendous than what they're searching for now, and we'll be going through this whole big scare again, in say forty or fifty years.
On the other-hand, I can not think of a more elaborate and awesome way to eradicate an entire ecosystem than to stretch every inch of it until it shreds into subatomic particles. In my mind, if I am going to die, I would most definitely want to die in the most amazing way possible; a black hole.
You can't tell me that you don't think dieing in a black hole would be awesome.
I hope it will be instant
Also, TheRealGreenEagle, you are a fool. Black holes have been witnessed in space through the hubble telescope. They are not a theory, they are scientific fact.
Also, from my point of view, you are thinking of a hypothesis, not a theory.
Gravity is just a theory, the fact that the earth is round is a theory, and evolution is a theory. I'm not going to go into a debate on these things with you, I'm just pointing out your mistake.
Black holes are some of the more common astronomical anomalies out there; saying they don't exist is like saying that supernovas don't exist because we've never had one happen in our own system, or that blue stars don't exist because our star is yellow.
>Black holes are some of the more common astronomical anomalies out there
blackholes are the ultimate power of the universe
In the end, I think I'd be ok about the risk of dying for the pursuit of how the universe works and is created, and although . Suppose those of us who feel that way and don't feel there's much risk should impose this on every one else though.
Also there is an awesome case of I knew about that before everyone else man in one of your responses. "i've been researching it before the media hype or internets" or something along those lines. Made me giggle.
>the problem is THAT ALL THOSE SCIENTISTS THINK THE SAME AS YOU.
they believe that their theory is the truth since everyone believes it
And everybody saying what you are THINK THE SAME AS YOU.Including the scientists.They belive the theroy is true because people like you belive it O.O;
People used to think Pluto was a planet
dude...your scarying me D:
Wait....In your opinion what do you think is going too happen
WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

"I Only Know That I Dont Know Nothing " Great Words From Aristhoteles or I think another greek pilosopher. That freaking thing its going to kill us with one way or other... if it doesnt kill us like the theory of the black hole or the strangelet it is going to kill us with war beacause is not providing to everybody in the world or other causes are going to be those words anyway everybody just chill out god has an hour for every1 the one that has to die has to die 100% true this ?% the fact that we are goig to die beacause of a black hole or a strangelet

Oh shut the hell up, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Everyone and their mother thinks they know more about the LHC than the scientists who staff it.
stop worrying and do some damn research instead of listening to all the hype news articles and sensationalist wackjobs on YouTube.
The odds that this thing will create a black hole is infinitesimally small, and even if those EXTREMELY EXTREMELY LOW ODDS pay out (I'm talking getting struck by lightning twice while winning the lotto jackpot in several states all on the same day) the physics of it mandate that the ABSOLUTELY TINY black hole will either
A) Evaporate into nothingness.
or
B) Be ejected from the earth's gravitational field at near-light speed, being too small to interact with any of the Earth's matter in any significant way.
Stop adding to the ridiculous hysterics. This isn't some B-grade Science Fiction movie.

>stop worrying and do some damn research instead of listening to all the hype news articles and sensationalist wackjobs on YouTube.
what the fuck are you talking about? I've been researching this stuff long before the whole histeria in mass media and internets.
You're the one who should do some research and read what scientists uninvolved in the project have to say. Those who want loose their jobs and purpose in life if the project is closed.
here, for example http://www.unificationtheory.com/
god/CONCERN.html
there are other links in my post
>A) Evaporate into nothingness.
According to the theory that has not been proven yet.
>B) Be ejected from the earth's gravitational field at near-light speed, being too small to interact with any of the Earth's matter in any significant way.
Where did you get this shit from? Gravity field sucks things in, not the other way around. So the black hole would be sucked into the center of the planet where the density of matter ix extremely high (thus making interaction possible) and grow there.
