View Full Version : they're trying to open a door to a new dimension
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/topic/story.cfm?c_id=325&objectid=10400645
but get this, right: what if OUR universe is just the result of some other civilization's experiment? i bet they're shitting their pants with glee that we're thinking about this
oh and i guess there's a small probability that the earth might be destroyed but it's pretty minimal

I thought that this thing was supposed to be some sort of a StargateŠ or something. I was going to say that if they're planning to perform a bunch of "mini big bangs" in there, it might not be the best idea to have people walking through it.
Either way, this contraption has workplace hazard written all over it.

They estimate the possibility of accidentally destroying the planet as extremely low.
That may be the greatest sentence I've ever read in an article in my entire life.

what's funny about that is i highly doubt it would be just "our planet" that would be destroyed. more like "the unmaking of existence." lol!

Dr. Egon Spengler: There's something very important I forgot to tell you.
Dr. Peter Venkman: What?
Dr. Egon Spengler: Don't cross the streams.
Dr. Peter Venkman: Why?
Dr. Egon Spengler: It would be bad.
Dr. Peter Venkman: I'm fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, "bad"?
Dr. Egon Spengler: Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.
Dr Ray Stantz: Total protonic reversal.
Dr. Peter Venkman: Right. That's bad. Okay. All right. Important safety tip. Thanks, Egon.
And for the record they had nuclear accelorators on their backs....

Correct.
STANTZ: I just realized something. We've never had a completely successful test with any of the equipment.
SPENGLER: I blame myself.
VENKMAN: So do I.
STANTZ: No sense worrying about it now.
VENKMAN (doubtful):Sure. Each of us is wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on our back. No problem.

Good thing it's only a small chance. Still though, those scientist dudes (and dudettes) are basically kind of toying with everyone's life. In a way...

There are accounts of similar experiments in "previous" civilizations... if you're into that kind of thing, of course.

you guys realise that particle accelerators have been in use for about 40 years now? and the biggest linear accelerator is in the US? they've been slamming quasi particles into each other at nearly the speed of light for decades and so far no black holes sucking in the earth. plus they've misrepresented the idea of what other dimensions would be like

"There has never been such a jump in particle physics. It will go into an area that we don't really understand," he added.
The fundamental goal of the massive machine is to answer the basic but crucial question of how matter was created at the birth of the universe.
HOw can they find out how it was created when they dont know what they do and how it works?
"We don't know what 95 per cent of the universe is made of - which is a bit embarrassing for a subject that claims to be fundamental," Dr Cox said.
:rolleyes: big bang BOOM
"There is dark matter. It is all over the place but we have no idea what it is."
Yep, dark matter , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter
everything that is not explainable is dark matter.
"There is also something called dark energy, and that is an even bigger question.
it seem that DARK is a tag put on things not undertsand in astrophysics
The machine remind me of the one in the movie with jodie ___ and matthew mchotsomething.
I am sure they will trow in this machine a couple of homeless people at first..

I'll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you're using here: it didn't require any discipline to attain it. You read what others had done and you took the next step. You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could and before you even knew what you had you patented it and packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now you're selling it, you want to sell it!
Its not a question if you could, but whether or not you should.

Though it was sort of unclear to me when they expect to be able to learn something. They said they'd have results in about a year but they expect to have the thing run for 10-20 years.
