Cern Missing Black Hole Raises New Safety Concerns

Cern Missing Black Hole Raises New Safety Concerns

In April 2008 the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) held an official open day for the launch of the world’s largest particle accelerator, otherwise known as Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

In September of the same year, CERN was forced to shut down the LHC due to an electrical malfunction which caused a huge helium leak.

However, it has now been alleged that the reported helium leak was actually a cover story for a containment breach, after an artificially created micro black hole was reported as missing.

An unnamed source has suggested that the particle collision test went ahead as planned, and that following the experiment a number of micro black holes were created. The black holes were in the process of being documented and evaluated, when it was noticed that one of the micro black holes was missing.

Ooops. Maybe Hawkings prediction of the mini black holes disapearing as soon as they appear was correct... but they wouldn't make a big fuss about it if it was the case...

Dying from a man-made black hole... most original death ever... not.

maybe it got sucked into another black hole, or it is being held hostage

Inventory control can be a real problem.
Maybe someone took it home to show his kids.

The LHC wasn't even accelerating particles when the break happened, they were just running diagnostic tests.

So, it's impossible for the LHC to have made a black hole during that time.

That being said, you all know that the LHC is actually a time machine, right?

Perhaps it sank into the middle of the planet,and is eating the Earth from the inside out,hence the apparent rise in earthquake activity?
Who knows?

I don't know about it being sucked up by another.
It's like an unstoppable force vs. an immovable object.

But then again, What do I know about black holes right?

It could be possible, maybe one was larger, hence having a greater force of gravity, sucked up the smaller one.

But maybe it just simply disappeared, died out.

maybe they miscounted... wouldn't be the first time...

OOO then that must mean that there are lots of UFO's going in and out from that LHC. Excellent, now I'm getting my poster ready, for them to take me away from this planet. :p

That test was not at full power I heard in, April 2008. But if they do test it at full power I wonder how powerful those micro black holes would then be?

Geez everytime when they say something goes missing it put that chill in my spine.

What!??!?! ok, you can't just throw a statement like that out there wihtout some kind of backing...c'mon cough up a link.

I know where it is, and were it has been for at least 42 years ( possible with time travel yes ? )

It is in my mums washing machine. Keeps stealing my socks, but only 1 of them. ( It must be able to only absorb 50% of the surrounding mass. )

Hawkings eat your heart out.

I think that if he did cough up something, then that missing black hole might be found. Either that or someone from the future stole it. grrr....

There was a black hole missing? How do you exactly miss something that lives very briefly before it evaporates into nothingness? The process of smashing atoms together creates these blackholes and there isnt a set number....

Gaahhhh the sock monster in the washing machine, I think they install them in the factory

Actually I swear that black hole is somewhere in my house, it has a name too,
it's called "A safe place". Everything I put there is never seen again

.

I have yet to snap a photo or shoot any video , or find a reliable source online to back my theory, but I KNOW for a FACT that Mini-Black Holes are where that one sock is going. How the other one is able to escape each time is another mystery that I am feverishly attempting to solve.

Once I have documented concrete findings I will indeed create a thread with all of my research and conclusions.

Thinking this will be the title: The "Sock Thief" is NOT Crypto-zoological, CERN Mini-Black Holes are to blame *Video & Photographic Proof*

Keep a look out for it!

I swear I didn't read your post...weird...gotta love collective thought!

Black holes and singularities are just mathematical errors. Straight lines that extend forever in the same direction, as infinity is defined by mathematics, don't exist in nature. Stephen Hawking has proved that formal systems are always incomplete, nothing else.

Tech 1.... " Have you got the black hole ".

Tech 2..... " I don't know, I cant see it "

Tech 1....... " That must mean you do have it right ? "

Tech 2.... " Good question. But somethings pulling in my pants pocket "

What happens when these black holes start to suck up everything in its path? Whats the cover-up going to be for "Entire neighborhood sucked up by mysterious black dot?"

Wow, so much humor in a Science Thread? Phage even got in on the action!

Maybe my physics is off a little, but wouldn't two or more things with unbelievable amounts of "gravity" have an enormous attraction for one another? In which case they would immediately collide and fuse and increase their cumulative gravity? I don't think it would matter which one was smaller or larger or anything else?

Now, as for time machines, and sock monsters, and safe places, I don't know, but here is a list of cliches that should answer everything you ever wanted to know with enough vagueness that you won't know a thing more than you know now!

Why is everything so obvious?
"Obviously, there's no question about it."
Hard to argue with that. But sometimes it isn't so obvious:
Six of one, half-a-dozen of another
A little bit from column A, a little bit from column B
The more things change, the more they stay the same

You have to have an idea of what you are going to do, but it should be a vague idea.”
Pablo Picasso
Courtship consists in a number of quiet attentions, not so pointed as to alarm, nor so vague as not to be understood.
Laurence Sterne
All phenomena are real in some sense, unreal in some sense, meaningless in some sense, real and meaningless in some sense, unreal and meaningless in some sense, and real and unreal and meaningless in some sense.
Robert Anton Wilson
Give me a smart idiot over a stupid genius any day.
Samuel Goldwyn

What I want to know, is that if "a number" of miniature black holes were created, and they know that one is missing, does that mean that they know the others aren't missing? Does this imply that they are holding them in some sort of stasis or containment field and can still observe them to know that they are NOT missing as opposed to the one that IS missing? I mean, if they all evaporated almost instantaneously, then how do / did they tell a missing black hole from the black holes that are not missing. I hope that I am not alone in my concern at the idea of some egghead sitting at his desk gawking at his little vile of planet killing black holes. Did I miss something here?
