| Well, I’m on the fence this time…
ITER will provide us with information about future fusion facilities. There are other ways to research the possibilities of interstellar spaceflight and time travel just sounds like a bad idea to me, although I could go back to beat up the bullies that used to beat me up during my early school days xD
We will achieve other ways to test the theories. Can’t we find out whether the Higgs boson exists by developing better microscopes or something like picotechnology or even yoctatechnology??? Even though they don’t have any mass (excluding the theoretical Higgs boson of course). It must consist of something, such particles can be seen right??
Since we do not understand the possible consequences of the research conducted at LHC. We are clueless of what will happen. We should not wager the ongoing existence of humanity for a little amount of knowledge.
Anyway, I can’t stop it and even if I could, I probably wouldn’t. Since there is this other voice in my head which screams: GIMME KNOWLEDGE NOW!!! So by the time they fire her up, I will join the BOINC LHC project while hoping and wishing that nothing goes wrong... Heck, even though I’m agnostic, I might even pray for it! |
