World's biggest?
A theory of everything?........We'll see........

hope they tightened all the screws this time
>>While the Standard Model does a wonderful job of explaining particle physicists, scientists admit that it’s incomplete.
I didn’t think anything could explain particle physicists!
I don't think this statement is true.
I heard that Higgs bosons only give some types of matter mass.
What **could** go wrong?
Well, some folks have given this some thight
In John Ringo’s Into the Looking Glass, the University of Central Florida is destroyed by a 60 kiloton explosion that is first thought to be a nuclear weapon, but turns out to be a mishap from a Higgs boson research experiment. Following the explosion, gateways to other worlds are opened and a war with the aliens on the other side of the gates begins..
Not always right, but this is very much unknown territory...
In San Francisco they have the Large Hardon Collider.
and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale. The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.
Nothing good will come of this.
Playing God when you are certainly NOT God is all sorts of wrong.
I watched a documentary on the LHC. At the end, in a room filled with scientists, the speaker got up and gave a really good sermon and then asked everyone if they believed in the Holy Boson. The only thing missing was the snake-handling.
Those supersymmetric particles might not just help us to develop a powerful equation though. They could also explain one of the most enigmatic theories in physics: Dark Matter. "Most of the universe is made of Dark Matter," explains Barr. "That is stuff that pulls gravitationally on matter around it, but which doesn't interact with light, so is invisible. But it's very hard to detect." Dark matter theoretically accounts for up 80 per cent of the mass of the universebut we've never yet observed a particle with the qualities we think it should exhibit.
As far as "making the picture complete", this could be even more significant than BICEP-2... (See Isaiah 45:7)
So that’s why I feel the way I do in the morning. Loaded with Higgs Bosons. Yep, there, I’m looking at the label on the beer bottle and there it sez, “Higgs Bosons - 1200% of minimum daily requirement”. At least we got truth in labeling...
Sheldon is pleased.
Is this going to get me any closer to owning a flying car? No? Then phooey on it. ;-)
