With new safety measures in place, the staff at CERN has brought the Large Hadron Collider down to a temperature that's cooler than outer space, and is preparing to make a second try at producing the machine's first collisions. Some of those collisions may produce elusive Higgs Bosons—or something completely unexpected.

First of all, "they", whoever they are, are absolutely blowing smoke up your -insert desired orifice here-. They have no clue when "first contact" is going to happen.
Second, nothing will happen with the LHC. Nothing. Folks who are too ignorant to understand what they are actually doing and how it works are more given to fanciful internet tales about how the LHC is going to -insert desired rumor here-.
It's sad that in these modern times people are still susceptible to such ignorance.

Aliens and UFOs » LHC starts collisions in 5 weeks, 1st contact in 5 weeks -coincidence?

Ohh, it all makes sense now! The LHC is being sabotaged from the future, by people sent from the present, to prevent it from starting up in 5 weeks, so that aliens don't contact us.

The collider idea has been tried and tried again, people gave up, or projects ran dry. I don't see this one being much more significant.
