Last but not least: LHC, THC, RIP
If the doomsday theorists are right, the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva will cause the Earth to vanish on Wednesday. So here’s some well-meaning advice: Don’t miss the last spaceship.
Tomorrow, Wednesday, the most powerful particle accelerator on earth will be put into operation in Geneva, and with it, the so-called Large Hadron Collider (LHC), elementary particles will be made to collide with each other at quasi-light speed. This is a major event for quantum physics, as it hopes to find the smallest building blocks in the world. And it also hopes to put an end to the wild theories that have been running rampant for decades due to the standstill in experimental physics.
How ironic that this experiment, of all things, has led to a new edition of the doomsday theories that cannot be killed, this time: the LHC produces a black hole that swallows up the Earth. Should this fantasy, reminiscent of excessive drug intoxication, actually come true, the earth would simply disappear sometime tomorrow (or if you're reading this on Wednesday: today). Kind of like at the beginning of the book "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", when Earth had to be blown up to build an intergalactic highway. If that's what happens, well, then rest in peace. Or don't miss the last spaceship.
