They're turning on the machine tomorrow, 10/9. I remember seeing a therad about that on the forum, but i just can't find it :S.
If anyone needs to know more about that, the LCH experts made a Rap out of it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j50ZssEojtMThere are posibilities that we all die if something goes wrong, and now that you've seen that video (i really lol'd at the fact that they CANT dance/rap), would you trust your life to that guys? Personally, I wouldn't

I wonder what we will find. I doubt that turning it on can kill us, as the energy it produces is not enough to make a continual black hole or anything giant.
Wizzup?

If the LHC-experiment really is as dangerous as some people claim, I don't think the experiment would ever find place, at least, not publicly. I feel 100% safe.
Well, maybe a bit less safe after seeing that video that you posted. ;)

If black holes do emerge, they will disappear as soon as they are created and are so small it wouldn't cause any major effect when it happens.

i doubt much will happen. but if anything does then they said they can shut it down in less than a second. and even a nuclear bomb wouldnt be able to kill the whole earth.

Black hole are way worse then nuclear bombs…

Black Holes can suck everything within its gravitational pull ( which is huge). So imagine Earth being sucked into oblivion in a few seconds, and thats from a small black hole.

im doubt we'd even be able to create a black hole. I also dont see how a black hole would be able to suck the earth down if the black hole is inside the earth?(afaik the experiment is 300 feet under the ground).

!!!! about the black holes! i have a fucking genius idea!!!!!
if this has a possibility of creating a black hole, then soon, mabye within like a decade or so we will be able to create black holes and control them and THATS where we can put our nuclear wastes and other things thats taking up space on the world! (like seriously) :D

lol ill whatch video after colege if im still alive =]
999 ftw but you will have to wait for my 1k post after college if im still alive

It is compleatly safe. The earth is doing these experiments every day. In the sky, the suns energy is crashing into our atmosphere (sp?) and does those small explosions.
Isn't this wrong forum?
EDIT: Ok.. theres 0.0001 chance of that we all die.

that doesnt really make sense, because black holes create radiation. So why would that help?
and the black hole would suck us in if we were close enough to actually make it in the first place.

I hope you realise that when you posted this, it already turned on ;) Since you Americans are 8 hours behind Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) ;) So…

Shady? got owned by Dan's The Man! :D
But now i own him again: Yesterday was just an test to see if it worked, they will do the real thing the 21st of october.

actually 21st of october.

I can't stop getting owned. Lol. Dan, it wasn't turned on by that time, I posted this about 10 PM Argentina time, wich i think is GTM+3 but not sure, and the thing was going to be turned on for testing at 4 AM of the next day, Argentina time.
So, it wasn't on yet ;)
And yes, i made a little more research (jk, i just read it in the post above xD) and the particles are going to start crashing the 21st of october.

Yeah, an actual collision won't take place until October 21st.

Yep, an actual collision won't take place until October 21st.
Did anyone of you notice we said it 5 times?

Is it true there not colliding the protons for another 6 months?

I don't think the LHC was hacked.

To people who still think we're all going to die, it wont happen, "The reason is simple: high energy particle collisions happen all the time. Every so often, a proton that's been kicked out of a supernova screams across the universe and slams into the earth with far more energy than the LHC can muster. A recent study estimates that this has happened more than 30 billion times." (says David Gross)
