Anyone uneasy about the LHC and its apparent world destroying capabilities? Just tell me how you think it will happen, and I will tell you why it won't.

You wouldn't happen to be that guy from last night who was talking about black holes n stuff in a dif lhc thread?

Yeah this shit is old, and I remember when everyone thought that a micro black hole would be created and consume the earth.

Not THAT old. There was a big discussion last night.

>> No.1619773

gotta love the media. when a physicist says there is a barely even a micro chance that a black hole can be created, and that that black hole would be so small and insignificant (probably not even lasting a second before collapsing), the media flips shit about black holes and the end of the world -.-

>> No.1619781

>>1619767
Really? Didn't the movies play this for a while? If something so small was even possible to be created, it would evaporate before we'd even know it was there.

I am, answer this for me, what if someone started hording nuclear weapons in said structure, then set them all off at once, resulting in a giant splosion. What now?

I recently calculated how much energy it would take to destroy the world (black hole creation or umpty million billion trillion joules).

The LHC already did blow everything up. When you died your brain released a ridiculously large amount of DMT and so you've been in a dream state for what appears to have been months now. In truth, only a few seconds have passed in the real world.

If a blackhole was supposedly made by the Large Hard-on Collider, less than a microsecond is needed to spaghettify the Earth. My brains wouldn't have the opportunity to react that fast to release DMT.

Your argument is invalid.

No. A black hole of the magnitude the LHC could pump out would have an event horizon too insignificant to pick up any subatomic particles in an atom. A single atom would literally pass right over the black hole unscathed.

>> No.1621378

Yup. The black hole would sink to the centre of the Earth and lie there all happily and shit.

The very theory that means a black hole would be generated in the LHC collisions also dictates they would almost instantanously evaporate.
