Physicists Create BlackMax To Search For Dimensions In Space At The LHC

Looks like they are going to use the Large Hadron Collider to create a black hole simulator, with a goal of searching for extra dimensions of timespace predicted by string theory.  Yeah, nothing could go wrong with that.  The scientists at the LHC assure us this is perfectly safe ;-)

Comparison of the very small and the very large.  Let's take a look at the empty space inside a hydrogen atom.

Do NOT grab the horizontal scroll tab, but click to the right in the scroll bar and see how far to the right the hypothetical electron resides in comparison to the proton...11 real world miles of scrolling supposedly, good luck.

...ok, once you get the idea grab the horizontal scroll tab.

...or go to the web page if you prefer: http://www.phrenopolis.com/perspective/atom/index.html

Now compare that to the cool planet and stars scale video...

I don't have anything else...I just thought it was cool

Look! Kittens!
