Imagine firing needles across the Atlantic and getting them to collide halfway. That's the technical challenge facing engineers at the Large Hadron Collider today as they prepare to smash together proton beams at the highest-ever recorded energies.

well they actually did manage that. no seaguls or self sabotaging itself from the future this time.

They broke the energy record. So cool.

Where are all the "This Will End the World" morons? Shouldn't they be frothing at the mouth over black holes and other such scary words that they don't really understand but feel the need to panic about anyways?

they've got the waste of money argument to fall back on.
