Will the world really end when they turn on that atom smasher?

Question

Will the world really end when they turn on that atom smasher?

Answer 1

no...i'm sick and fed up of these questions...do what i did....learn some physics (quantum preferably) And then look up what the guys with letters after thier name (an i dont mean Rev. or anything similar) say and think.....hm....I dont think they have made a mistake....

.....Or you could just search on yahoo answers for one of the seventy billion ones already asked...just the same as this one...

Answer 2

It might cause a mini black hole, d**n I hope it doesn't destroy the earth. But I doubt it

Answer 3

OOOOooooohhhhh, let's hope not!

Answer 4

DO NOT WORRY - LIVE YOUR LIFE

The chances of that happening are lower than the chances of someone winning the Lottery Jackpot 3 times in a row - and that has never been done before.

If we do create a Micro Black Hole, it should evaporate very quickly, or be too small to even do anything, although it may grow and grow until it eventually becomes large enough.

If we do create a Strangelet, a type of Atom which might not even exist, it might take years upon years to harm us.

If we do create another Big Bang, we're screwed.

If we do create a Vacuum Bubble, then, theoretically, provided the False Vacuum theory is correct, then we are screwed.

BUT - nothing will happen when we turn it on. We aren't even smashing any atoms together when we turn it on first, we're only testing.

Also, hundreds of Safety Checks have been carried out, so it's like 99.997% guaranteed to be safe.

Lastly, if current trends continue, the only considerable threats will start to crop up around 2150.

PS - It most definitely will not happen, 'cause if it could/would, it would have already in nature.

Answer 5

Yes.  Just like it was supposed to in 2000.  Oh wait, it didn't.

Answer 6

No the can make the black holes go away as quickly as they're formed.

or we ought to just wait and see.
