I've been reporting on the Large Hadron Collider for several
years; I began when it was still in the final stages of construction, see the
background links at the bottom. The LHC is the largest and most complex machine
ever created by man; it took twenty years to build and it cost over six billion
pounds. It consists of a tunnel no less than seventeen miles in circumference
three to five hundred feet beneath the Franco-Swiss border near Geneva ,
Switzerland . Inside the
tunnel, subatomic particles are smashed together at velocities close to the
speed of light so that they break apart and release their constituent elements.
One particle, the Higgs Boson or "God particle", that had only been
postulated to exist was finally found in 2012, almost fifty years later. In
January 2013 the LHC was shut down to be refitted. After its upgrade it will be
able to run at twice its original power, up to 14 tera electron volts- TeV. Given
the rather demure name of "Run Two", the future experimental schedule
of the LHC will push the boundaries of known physics far further than even the
high power collisions that unveiled the Higgs Boson. In fact one of the
scientists involved, Prof. Tara Shears, said: "I can't wait for the
switch-on. We've been waiting since January 2013 to have our proton beams back."
That switch-on will begin this month. This process is quite complicated and it
will take until about May before collisions can begin, but when they do, the
scientists will be breaching entirely new territory. "Instead of trying to
test the truth of this theory, what we really want to do now is break it,”
continued Prof. Shears. "It's a really significant step in terms of what
we might be able to see in the universe." The energy of the collisions
will recreate conditions just a trillionth of a second after the Big Bang, the
very moment the physical universe popped into existence, see: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-31162725.
This will hopefully solve mysteries like how the levels of matter and
antimatter in the infant universe were not symmetrical, so resulting in the
residual matter which fills the universe today. Also what about "dark
matter"? Can that be found? Questions have been raised over the safety of
such a radical ruffling of normal spacetime. Concerns began before the LHC was
first operational and they're going to increase now. The loudest voice appealing
for caution is Walter L Wagner, see: http://www.lhcdefense.org/.
He has been speaking out about the supposed dangers of particle accelerators
for many years because he thinks that the high energy collisions of protons
might produce mini black holes which could coalesce into a full size black hole
that would engulf the Earth. Alternatively the collisions could produce
"strangelets", a different kind of matter that has the power to
convert the normal matter it comes into contact with into a copy of itself;
thus starting a downward spiral that could result in the Earth mutating into a
"strange star". The LHC's laboratory, the European Organization for
Nuclear Research- CERN (Conseil Européen
pour la Recherche Nucléaire) denies all this; and its defenders naturally
include Prof. Brian Cox. I believe that Cox is being groomed to play a
completely new and unique role in the media, see: http://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/prof-brian-cox-watch-this-space.html.
However, we are dealing with situations completely without precedent here and
we're going in blindfolded; even His Royal Coxness admits: "The LHC is certainly
by far the biggest jump into the unknown.", see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67q_2V6xOxE.
Since then, Stephen Hawking has gone public claiming that the Higgs Boson is
inherently unstable; in its present form it holds the structure of matter
together and if that form was shifted then it would flip and that structure
would collapse. He reassures us that the LHC doesn't have nearly enough power
to destabilize the Higgs, but what if he's wrong? And maybe the LHC is just
their first attempt, see: http://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/god-particle-doomsday.html.
So no matter how tiny the risks, the consequences are so dire that they cannot
be taken. They could lead to the destruction of the Earth, or even the entire
physical universe... But, what if that's the idea.
I've speculated several times, and I do again, that the
powers-that-be are planning to pull off a "Götterdämmerung manoeuvre"; this is a kind of
dog-in-the-manger, scorched earth policy. If they know that they've lost and
they can never have their New World Order, then they'll drag the world down
with them rather than let free people have it. How do I know this? I don't for
sure, but it fits in with their hateful, megalomaniacal mindset. There are also
visual clues, for instance, as I detail in the background links below, CERN has
a very unusual statue in its forecourt, that of the Hindu God Shiva; isn't that
a bit of an odd emblem to put outside a scientific institution? The emblem of CERN
also has the number "666" encoded into it, can you spot it? In the
Book of Revelations, this is the "number of the Beast" meaning the
Devil. Interestingly, despite the fact that the LHC is merely a scientific
experiment, security is unusually tight. To enter the working areas of the
collider staff must pass through a security gate in which the retinas in their
eyes are scanned; not even fingerprinting is considered secure enough. This process
was a part of the plot for The DaVinci
Code author Dan Brown's somewhat lesser novel Angels and Demons. Also could the Illuminati be constructing another
such massive instrument on another planet, maybe below the clouds of Jupiter,
or on a planet near a star many light-years away? If so, what can we do about
it? Well I don't want to give you sleepless nights, dear HPANWO-reader. Like
Gandalf from Lord of the Rings, I believe
there are forces for good as well as evil at work in this world. I know there's
no such thing as a messiah to sit around waiting for and that we humans are
masters of our own destiny; it is up to we, ourselves to create a better world.
Nevertheless, if there is some horrible atrocity awaiting us that is beyond our
capability to prevent, and if somebody wants to step in and lend a hand, I will
happily swallow my pride and accept. Indeed, could this by why the LHC suffered
from mysterious technical problems a few years ago? Maybe it will again this
time and we will never have a "Big Bang machine". I shall report on
it if this happens.

Gulp. That is one frightening machine Ben. We live in strange times indeed don't we?
ReplyDeleteProfessor shears....would that be Billy shears
ReplyDeleteSimon parkes has a lot to say on this subject
ReplyDeleteYes, Gigerbite!
ReplyDeleteHas he, Jason? I'm curious to hear what he says.
