Black hole anyone?

PS: No I don't think it will make a black hole, but that thing is bad ***

$4 billion dollars just to discover what MIGHT have happened. WTF? Use that money for something that will actually help us.

 

i say the same thing about the war

 

They're doing a shitton more than just seeing what might have happened. They're looking for dark energy, dark matter, what gives things mass/gravity, among other ---- that I don't understand. Some of the crap they could learn from it could completely change everything we know about physics. If they wanna throw their money at it to possibly learn something that could possibly give me some awesome ---- in the future, I'm all for it.

The best things to come from experimental physics aren't necessarily the things they're trying to prove or disprove... the best things are developments in techniques, materials, and methods. Just building stuff like this and getting it to work as planned after doing a bunch of theoretical stuff is a feat. I'm talking about things like networking schemes, structural engineering, development of better conductors and microprocessors etc. However I think the biggest waste of it is how much energy particle physics uses, I don't remember the exact cost of running LHC per hour but it's a ton.
