One of the commenters (brohken) on the youtube video said this: (Reposting here... as it was just too good...! )

Breakthroughs in modern science. The largest, and most expensive collaboration of physicists and engineers. Detecting collisions of 7TeV beams.

Capture it all on a VGA 1FPS camera. EPIC.

Whoops. Just read what I wrote a second time. If that comes across as some sort of racist remark, that wasn't the intent. It was supposed to be a lame joke about getting sucked into a black hole while commenting about the fact that they didn't exist. Instead, I found myself at the event horizon of getting lots of hateful responses. So let me apologize at the speed of fiber optic light. That's the best I can do. ]]>Mar 31st 2010 3:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/Mar 30th 2010 2:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/Mar 30th 2010 2:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/

It's the Higgs boson, a theoretical particle which is the basis for mass.

In a nutshell. ]]>Mar 30th 2010 8:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/Mar 30th 2010 8:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/Mar 30th 2010 9:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/
No, guilt is the basis for Catholic Mass.

This is just like, regular mass. ]]>Mar 30th 2010 10:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/
the theoretical Higgs Boson isn't exactly the "basis" for mass, it's what physicist believe is responsible for giving "other" particles it's mass, like protons and neutrons. If it's found, then it basically backs up the whole big bang theory and semi-obliterates the whole idea that there is a God and whatnot, which is why it's been dubbed the God particle.]]>Mar 30th 2010 6:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/Mar 31st 2010 1:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/Mar 31st 2010 1:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/
No, it won't semi-obliterate the notion of God. It will just back up what people THINK regarding the creation of the universe. Since it still cannot be proven. Also, news flash, the big bang theory, and God, can co-exist. Just because one exists doesn't mean the other doesn't.]]>Mar 31st 2010 10:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/30/large-hadron-collider-to-attempt-7-tev-proton-collisions-via-liv/
