Having been significantly upgraded since its discovery of the elusive Higgs Boson in 2012, the world's largest particle accelerator is about to embark on a new series of experiments designed to detect tiny black holes.

If it succeeds it could open up a new chapter in particle physics which could help to explain the nature of dark matter and prove the existence of parallel universes.

  • Or not. There has never been any evidence of "parallel universes".

    Back it 2008, there was a huge concern (scientifically unfounded) that the Large Hadron Collider could create black holes that would devour the Earth. Besides the Higgs Boson, they were researching for clues to new forces of nature, and possibly even extra dimensions of space-time as postulated by Einstein in 1916. However, the black holes it did create were harmlessly microscopic and lasted mere nano-nano-nanoseconds.

  • What does Cern have in common with Harry Potter?

    Cern has a Large Hadron Collider.

    Harry Potter has a large Hagrid Collider

  • Ok, wasn't aware that they actually created some, but soon they will be doing them on an assembly line.

    • With these new upgrades the Large Hadron Collider is being referred to as a future "black hole factory". But an accident in 2016 caused an immediate shutdown of the facility due to a strange case of the unexplained disappearance of a French physicist.

      To dissipate and drive out the residual electron cloud, the accelerator had to be brought to the limit of its maximum permissible capacity to circulate very high-energy flows of particles.

      A mini black hole was probably created during this rather unusual mode of operation of the Large Hadron Collider, literally snapping up the physicist located near the fleetingly-created space/time vortex.

      In an interview with the press shortly before his death, the eminent theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking (author of "Black Holes and Baby Universes") stated that not all information is lost when something enters a black hole and there might be a possibility to retrieve information from a black hole.

      Scientists will soon initiate new mini black holes in an attempt to keep in touch with the missing physicist and the possibility for eventually returning him to our dimension of space and time.

  • If'n all these universes be like IKEA, there ain't likely nuthin' parallel gowin' on.


    Wonky af if'n I got anythin' to do with it.
  • Actually that "news" is over 4 years old. Parallel universes, black holes, black matter, etc. Been there done that.

    A new Larger Large Hadron Collider is planned, with construction beginning in 2038.

    CERN is planning to build a second, larger 100 kilometer collider.

    • With apologies, my comments were just for playing around with you. Just a joke. No black holes holes have every been artificially produced and there has never been proof of the theory of parallel universes. Check your sources (and mine too). You might find a bunny.

  • Extraction of Energy from a Black Hole

    So if we create big enough, and stable number of black holes it could, (dare l say it) allow a free, limitless energy source.

    Here is the confirmation experiment done recently, or proof that Perpetual Systems are possible.

  • I went to the 'sciencealert' link and my first thought was 'this is not a scientific journal'. In particular, the phrases below caught my attention....as did a copyscape run that shows 80+% of the text is pure copy/paste. The unique 20% seem to be pretentious comments as below...
    .
    So I checked further (curious person that I am) - and found this description of that particular website:

    Flaky Academic Journals: An Alert About Science Alert

    The only 'credit' given is at the end where this link is posted...

    https://www.nature.com/articles/s41567-020-0944-3
    ...where contributors, citations and footnotes are listed...


    I did find a page listing the 'writers' of sciencealert - if you look at the 5th person down - that is the author of this 'alert'....seriously....

    https://www.sciencealert.com/our-team

    Sometimes looking INTO 'articles' like this one is more interesting than anything posted in the 'article'....to me, at least.

  • Not really - I was serious. I find the back stories far more interesting than the 'did you see this' part in many cases. It's amazing how much fodder publications can manufacture from one original scientific announcement.

    Puts a lot of 'news stories' in perspective. Just entertaining myself. Standing on the shoulders of giants is high risk behavior - it's a long fall to the bottom and I'm fearful of heights.

  • I am going to throw my 2 cents worth in here, even though it's not legal Australian currency.
    In the year 1900, our world was vastly different to what it is today.
    If you took some of the things we take for granted and showed them to people living in 1900, they would either think they're fake or would be amazed at what can be accomplished, given enough time, money and conviction in beliefs.

    If a few people, who live/lived in 2120, brought back some items they commonly use, we probably would also be astonished.

    However, because of the increased speed that changes happen nowadays,
    I believe we're foolish to ignore the serious possibility of future scientific advancement here, and that there is life on other planets, and in other galaxies, let alone in other universes and/or alternate universes.

    OK. I shared my thoughts.

    • Scientists do take this possibility seriously. And advances in our technology for detection has raised this probability to heart-throbbing heights of potential possibilities. But probability is not evidence.

      For example, there is a very high likelihood of favorable conditions for primitive life in our own solar system (ie several moons of Jupiter and Saturn), although no direct observation is possible at this time. But probes are on the way.

      The Hubble telescope has peered deep into space and revealed distant galaxies, comets, evolution of stars, black holes, mapped dark matter, confirmed Einstein's space-time continuum theory, discovered planets orbiting other suns, and even found planets with near earth-like conditions.

      A new, more powerful and technologically advanced telescope, the James Webb Space Telescope, was scheduled to be launched in March but has been delayed until March 2021 because of COVID-19.

      The JWST will be able to look much deeper into the universe and penetrate obscuring dust and gas at galaxies, stars, and planets which were far too distant or faint for Hubble. The universe most likely is abundant with life.

    • Neil deGrasse Tyson had a good insight into this.

      He explained how the difference between a human brain and an ape brain was just two differences in our genome. Two different genes. And except for the number of neurons, the brains of apes and humans are identical.

      He wondered if there was a species out there that was just two genes more advanced than us, two genes making up their brains...more advanced than us.

      What would they be like? How would they think? It's impossible for us to know. And it would be impossible for us to understand.

  • Science fiction says a whole lot more about the world when the fiction was written than it does about any future time.

    You mean we're the best that Earth has to offer?

  • It all depends on whether they get out of the warlike mindset, or not.

    We can currently mess up our planet by placing a Tzar Russian nuclear bomb at the thinnest point of the Manarias Trench, which would cause widespread earthquakes, and possibly a Super volcano eruption.

    String enough of those together and launch it at a planet and the atmosphere is a mess.

    As for speculation, that is pretty easy, just stay within a humanoid restriction, and push tech, as far as it can go.

    So a wafer thin sheet of crystal that can show a video image or 3D real life hologram is probably one. We will probably have those in 200,300 years time, unless we get lucky?

  • Parallel universes are something I've believed in since... what... age five? I'm thirty-seven years old, and that belief is stronger than ever. It's much more believable than the LHC destroying THIS universe (which is [I believe] is one of an infinite number) with micro black holes.
