They have already had some trial runs though.

Initial particle beam injections were successfully carried out on 8-11 August 2008

‘Nothing will happen for at least four years,’ he said. ‘Then someone will spot a light ray coming out of the Indian Ocean during the night and no one will be able to explain it.

Well he's fucking ruined the ending now

As long as they fix it so the rays of light come out of Elland Road and Stamford Bridge, I'll die happy.

Let Professor Otto Rossler put your mind at ease.

Rossler the bio-chemist?  A chemist talking about particle-physics.  He's not really qualified to make these claims to be honest.  That's like having a rugby coach try and manage a football team.  We know how well that worked out.

I can't wait to see how this goes...this is seriously exciting stuff and whatever they get from this could be on a par with the biggest scientific ideas and discoveries of the past centuries..

I am soo happy being a nerd Smiley

For me, this is what mankind should be doing..exploring space, building concordes, Millau Bridges and Buggatti Veyrons..scaling K2 and Everest and all that sort of thing.

this is what it should be all about....

edit...to any sceptics that say "but the world might end, we shouldn't attempt it"...yeah it could end tomorrow..but it would end because we are attempting something truly astonishing..something amazing (not like building a big nuclear bomb or getting hit by an asteroid)...if there is a good way to go out, then that's it for me Smiley

I agree it's an exciting time - and I'm looking forward to watching the bbc science correspondent try and explain it in a way we/I can understand.

But, I for one though would be happier if old professor Rossler had kept his mouth shut. I don't want to be worrying for the next four years that I'm about to die everytime it goes a bit darker when the sun gets hidden behind a cloud.

It's more likely that a large body (such as an asteroid) is going to crash into the earth and kill every one on it.

In fact, unless mankind finds another way to do that or something else 'goes wrong' first, then the chance that an asteroid will hit the earth and wipe out all or most of mankind is pretty much 100%. It's just a matter of when.

Which is nice.
