Theres not much chance of humans ending the universe but I don't think its beyond the realms of science fiction that man could destroy Earth, maybe even the Solar System.

They say this particle accelerator will accelerate the particles to so close to the speed of light that they would very likely produce mini black holes, these mini black holes will decay and disappear in an instant though, so no danger. There is no reason whatsoever for them to even attempt to create one that could sustain itself, but if they could, that would end the earth and anything in its vicinity pretty quickly, wouldn't affect the wider universe though.

The end is extremely fucking nigh !

According to virginmedia the large hadron collider will be switched on this saturday.
I bet i win the fucking lottery and the world ends.

Also heres what Nostradamus has to say about it...

Leave, leave Geneva every last one of you,
Saturn will be converted from gold to iron,
"Raypoz" will exterminate all who oppose him,
Before the coming the sky will show signs.

Been around a while

Nothing bad is going to happen. In reality, if it doesn't produce a Higgs boson, nothing is going to happen and it's back to the drawing board. Either way I'm pretty sure we're gonna see the standard model be superseded by something else fairly soon.

I just found this in a local news thread and thought I'd crosspost it here:

I'm more concerned with the impact a mite, insecticides and GM crops are having on honey bees. once they're dead, the human race has four years left.

Do honey bees help pollinate trees? or grass?
I think wind and animal shit takes care of that part.

Flowers on the other had may get a tough time,
but your right, im sure theres a balance to it all
why cant wasps fuck off, i like bees

A quick google...

Honeybees don’t just make honey; they pollinate more than 90 of the tastiest flowering crops we have. Among them: apples, nuts, avocados, soybeans, asparagus, broccoli, celery, squash and cucumbers. And lots of the really sweet and tart stuff, too, including citrus fruit, peaches, kiwi, cherries, blueberries, cranberries, strawberries, cantaloupe and other melons.

In fact, about one-third of the human diet comes from insect-pollinated plants, and the honeybee is responsible for 80 percent of that pollination, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture

I tell ya what though, the more i read on this, the more 50/50 i am regarding soiling my pants.

its purely down to ignorance oncourse, I'm as clued up on this subject

How do we know this isn't just some gigantic con-trick to wangle billions of €uros of taxpayers money into a giant job creation scheme? I bet none of the people working on this project is exactly 'poor' and even if nothing works none of us here could ever prove it.
