Exciting times coming up, people. Democratic convention! Republican convention! And then, on Sept. 10, the start-up of the Large Hadron Collider!
The Large Hadron, you may remember, is the 17-mile-long particle accelerator being built near Geneva. Once it’s up and running, its designers believe it will take particle physics research to a whole new level. Its critics think it may create a black hole that will swallow up the universe. This is what is known as a wide range of possibilities.
