Happy Particle Accelerator Day!

Today in Switzerland they are going to fire up the Large Hadron Collider. This is a particle accelerator complex. They are going to shoot protons at each other at a very high rate of speed with lots of energy to see what will happen. from what it sounds like they are trying to recreate some aspects of the Big Bang and look for the Higgs Boson or "God particle," the one that, if it exist, will make all the theories work. (we all know about looking for or trying to figure out that one thing to make it fit and make it all work... hard to find/ never happens). but the interesting thing is they don't really know what will happen. i am sure they have a pretty good idea but when you are playing to trying to recreate the Big BANG (note word bang) it might be a good idea to have some idea.
