Subterranean secrets of the Universe
In a cosmic-sized cavern 100 meters beneath the French-Swiss border, scientists from around the globe are making final preparations for the largest experiment the world has ever seen in an attempt to unearth the origins of the Universe.
In November next year the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) the largest -- 27km in circumference -- and highest energy -- 7 Tera-electron Volts(TeV) -- particle accelerator ever constructed will be switched on.
The LHC is the successor to the Large Electron-Positron Collider (LEP) which was operational from 1989-2000. The job of the LHC is to fire protons (high-energy particles) in opposite directions around the 27 kilometer ring at 11,000 times per second -- a velocity approaching the speed of light.
It is so powerful, it is capable of creating mini-black holes.
oh yeah! mad scientists creating mini-black holes that are going to go out of control and eat the world!
