“The Hadron Collider will shed first light into the dark universe”

With the Hadron Collider scheduled to be operational soon, scientists believe that the secrets of the universe will soon be revealed.
RT's Sophie Shevardnadze spoke to the Director General of CERN, Professor Rolf-Dieter Heaur about his expectations as the Collider prepares to go back online after last year's misfire, which caused the station to be shut down for repairs.
The problems have been solved, he says, and major discoveries and explanations for the simplest of particles that make up our universe lie ahead.

Killer algae wiped dinosaurs, may wipe humans, study suggestsThe mass extinctions in Earth’s history may have been caused by the rapid growth of toxic algae, scientists believe. The modern environment favors such a deadly event. |
This whole fantastical project is a complete waste of taxpayers money. You are all living in sci-fi land. I can guarantee these people behind such farcical 'scientific' projects are rubbing their little hands in glee at the amount of money they have managed to cream off of the hard working people. No doubt they are all living in very comfortable houses and have lovely bank balances. Talk about pulling the wool over the eyes. You gullible people should all be ashamed of yourselves. People are living in dire poverty, and just a small portion of the sum of money this fantasy project has sucked up could have eased the lives of 100's of thousands of communities all over the EU. Shame, shame, shame on you all for allowing these criminals to get away with such 'laundering' of good money.
You forgot one remark made in my previous comment. Spending a few billions for science is a lot more usefull than wasting 60 trillions $ in 60 years (60 followed by 12 eros) for our own self-destruction. If the CERN did not exist, Internet will not exist either and many other technological innovations. In case, you forgot to inform yourself, I precise than all major nations 2010 military budgets have been increased. Here is a subject for which you should worry more than for falling in a black hôle. Sorry Future Generations. Sincerely. Jean-Claude Meslin
Imagine my shock when it did not even remotely work. How come a layman like myself knows the whole "particle" concept is flawed into oblivion? You know when the scientists are stupid when they say a future test wrecked the test carried out on that day. That was proof. A scramble for lunacy. How would a future test know where to effect a test in the past? The Earth has moved. Ok, right, tell me. When men went into space and their time moved quicker, they effectively went into the future but did they disappear? Does anyone remember the time when scientists calculated the size of the graviton? It was as large as a hydrogen atom. Has anybody seen this "Oorte cloud" yet? I also have an issue with a respondent here who reckons there would be no internet if there was no Cern. I would enjoy reading that attempt of distortion of reality too. Then there is a respondents talk of money and what good it could of done. Money is merely a number, a perceived value. There are plenty of poor people who live well and its not down to money but the lifestyle they created. Africa is a fine example. Give the men who fish lake Victoris life belts. Then no business starts up making them locally. So more people go hungry.. etc. etc...
