Fact: This person has avoided my questions every time posed to him, why?
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is being built in a circular tunnel 27 km in circumference. The tunnel is buried around 50 to 175 m. underground. It straddles the Swiss and French borders on the outskirts of Geneva.
It planned to circulate the first beams in May 2008. First collisions at high energy are expected mid-2008 with the first results from the experiments soon after.
IS IT SAFE?
Hawking says,
" What happens when the mass of the black hole eventually becomes extremely small is not quite clear, but the most reasonable guess is that it would disappear completely in a tremendous final burst of emission, equivalent to the explosion of millions of H-bombs."
"there might be primordial black holes with a very much smaller mass that were made by the collapse of irregularities in the very early stages of the universe. Such black holes would have a much higher temperature and would be emitting radiation at a much greater rate."
Why does this not apply to the LHC?
How do you *know* it is safe?
Two main reasons:
1. Theory - Hawking himself recognized that black holes radiate. Given the energy available in the LHC, if a black hole was created it would necessarily be a very small one - a micro black hole - the energy available in the collision of two LHC protons is not a lot on a cosmological scale. The black hole would evaporate almost immediately into a shower of particles.
2. Cosmic rays - Extremely high energy particles (orders of magnitude above the LHC) coming from outer space are incident on upper atmosphere where they collide with the nuclei of gas molecules. We see the showers resulting from these collisions at sea level. This is appears to be safe, so we can be confident that the LHC will be.

But havent you done the exact same thing to others on your thread?
Seriously, what makes you more credable then him? You have posted anything but vague answers that can be found online by anyone. Someone asked you some very specific questions that only someone who is at that facility would know. Have you answered him yet?

I have. I believe I am much mor
e credible, I have answered FAR more questions.

So my question would be, do you know of anyone specifically at Area 51, or other I guess high ranking military/govt officials that have posed opposition to developing this equipment or technology?

I remeber in some other posts (John Titor Stuff) Him or them talking about The LHC and CERN, making small black holes etc to time travel. Is this the same technology or different.

Is there any significance to the date of the 2011-2012 schedule, possibly some advantage to its success at that date?
Thanks for coming back on board.

i know this sounds stupid, but wouldn't the scientists and/or engineers in charge of such an experiment be aware of the intense danger and cataclysmic consequences that it entails? meaning, yes, it sounds extremely fool-hardy to be doing it, but they would take radical precautions before attempting anything full-scale. the danger persists, but so does having butt-loads of nuclear weapons pointed at every nation. what do we need to be afraid of? the technology, the government, or both?

Just a question if you dont mind.
That is the same exact thing you posted before you left the last thread.
Did you copy it from there and paste it here or did you copy it from somewhere else and paste it here?

Welcome back:
Can I get your take on the recent "surge" of UFO sightings. Are the majority US craft?

What facilities exist to currently do this experimenting in creating "immense gravity" in two separate places in the universe and doesn't it take some type of collider to smash protons together at the speed of light? Enlighten me also on how "small points of immense gravity" provide the anti-gravity to stop your rips from closing up? You say experimentation on this has already been done but than state that the first experiments will occur when the LHC comes online.
I must be so dense and close-minded that I just dont' understand?

Glad you're back.
Since the LHC is being built in Switzerland, who is the person at the very top that is funding the entire project?
Is it George Soros?
