LHC news:

The first beam was circulated through the collider on the morning of 10 September 2008. CERN successfully fired the protons around the tunnel in stages, several kilometres at a time. The particles were fired in a clockwise direction into the accelerator and successfully steered around it at 10:28 am local time. The LHC successfully completed its first major test, for after a series of trial runs, two white dots flashed on a computer screen showing the protons traveled the full length of the Collider. CERN plans to send it counterclockwise, and eventually the two beams will be fired in opposite directions with the aim of smashing together protons to see how they are made. It took less than one hour to guide the stream of particles around its inaugural circuit.

Nothing ever works out the way I want.

  1. Yes, when I heard about it, I was certain it was ll just a plot to aggravate you.

  2. Good luck next time!

  3. You were hoping the world would end ?

  4. Well, the good news is that they haven’t actually collided anything yet. Thus far, they’ve only been shooting things around in circles. So maybe once they get to the point where they’re smashing bits of protons together at high speeds, your dreams of annihilation will come true.

  5. :D

  6. You want weird things…
