LHC countdown going strong September 7, 2008
Further to my earlier post on the Large Hadron Collider, CERN is all set to turn on the world’s biggest machine this coming Wednesday, the 10th of September.
The countdown and other information on the launch can be read here, where CERN welcomes the first beam!
In the meantime – the scientists behind LHC are getting death threats and legal cases from doomsdayers and other scientists who believe the experiment will go out of hand and cause destruction to the planet. But here is why the world won’t end on 10th September.
Kate McAlpine who works at CERN has come up with a nice rap that tries to explain what the LHC is going to do and also has some exclusive footage of the machine and other areas. Enjoy! :)
