    Hurray For Not Being Blown Up!

    We The Best Mang...We Deed It

    Although later I am posting another article about the CERN lab itself. If you are reading this then you should know that we, and by we I mean a hand full of physicists and scientist watched two white dots blink on a computer screen. Noticed what's missing? We [and they] did not die! Isn't that awesome!? Not dying rocks! The thing is, this is step one [or step 421] depending on how you look at this of many equally great and dangerous steps to come.

    Here's what Alex Higgins [Associated Press] has to add:

    "Now that the beam has been successfully tested in clockwise direction, CERN plans to send it counterclockwise. Eventually two beams will be fired in opposite directions with the aim of recreating conditions a split second after the big bang, which scientists theorize was the massive explosion that created the universe."

    More photos and the AP article after the jump...

    Who'se watching the monkey pee in its mouth again?

    Although I'd like to think that this would hush the naysayers, I know that is not the case.  You'd think having the world's leading physicists [including Stephen Hawking] that this would be enough. A man can dream can't he?

    Your Work Isn't Quite Done Yet...

    James Gillies spokesman for CERN lab adds:

    "On Wednesday we start small," said Gillies. "A really good result would be to have the other beam going around, too, because once you've got a beam around once in both directions you know that there is no show-stopper."
