"The world's biggest scientific experiment is set for the big switch-on within weeks - and it could answer some of the biggest questions in the universe."

"By smashing atoms together, the machine will recreate the conditions just after the 'Big Bang' when the universe was created."

"The machinery is housed in a 17 mile tunnel 100 metres beneath Switzerland and France.

Atoms will race around at virtually the speed of light in an atmosphere colder than outer space.

The millions of collisions will create temperatures 100,000 times hotter than the sun."

"Scientists hope that will uncover secrets about the universe's structure and reveal more about dark matter."

"And if the experiment doesn't work? "We will have assembled the world's most expensive piece of modern art," says one scientist."

Or if the experiment doesn't work, you could eliminate France from existence, and perhaps the rest of the world as well.

No one wants this to be tested more than me [well... to say the least I'm interested in the experiment], but if we're dealing with matter colder than outer space and particles 100,000x hotter than the sun, it only spells bad idea to me. I think they should take this project to mars or something. I don't wanna die. lol. Not yet.
