So they rigged up a bunch of candy thermometers in tandem?

Seriously how do they KNOW its multitrillion degrees? How can they know its not just 2 trillion or 10t for that matter.

And at that temp, why was their vessel or containment not melted to sludge, even if it lasted just a blink of a second?

I don't know the answer to that and in fact there might be a good one but regardless, I think it's wonderful that people are increasingly skeptical of casual pronouncements made by "scientists".

Such skepticism is the silver lining in the cloud of the Great Global Warming Hoax.

I myself am MUCH more skeptical of ANYTHING I read from ANY supposed "scientific" source.

I am not anti-science or anti-technology or in the thrall of any superstition. It's just that I've come to realize that having a SCIENCE DEGREE means, in and of itself, absolutely nothing and that there are hidden political agendas and pathological liars and cut-throat competition for science grants everywhere. Everywhere.

Reader beware.

It's a GOOD thing.

I believe it’s due to a magnetic envelope that surrounds the collision point.
