nuune Posted September 8, 2008 What do you think, are they going too far with this kind of experiment, there were alot of protests about the nature of this experiment, but the European court approved the experiment which is supported by more than 50 countries and thousands of scientists are taking part and putting data together ================================= Scientists hope for surprises in Big Bang experiment GENEVA (Reuters) - Scientists involved in a historic "Big Bang" experiment to begin this week hope it will turn up many surprises about the universe and its origins -- but reject suggestions it will bring the end of the world. And Robert Aymar, the French physicist who heads the CERN research centre, predicted that discoveries to emerge from his organization's 6.4 billion euro ($9.2 billion) project would spark major advances for human society. "If some of what we expect to find does not turn up, and things we did not foresee do, that will be even more stimulating because it means that we understand less than we thought about nature," said British physicist Brian Cox. "What I would like to see is the unexpected," said Gerardus t'Hooft of the University of Michigan. Perhaps, he suggested, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) machine at the heart of the experiment "will show us things we didn't know existed." Once it starts up on Wednesday, scientists plan to smash particle beams together at close to the speed of light inside CERN's tightly-sealed Large Hadron Collider to create multiple mini-versions of the primeval Big Bang. Cosmologists say that that explosion of an object the size of a small coin occurred about 13.7 billion years ago and led to formation of stars, planets -- and eventually to life on earth. A key aim of the CERN experiment is to find the "Higgs boson," named after Scottish physicist Peter Higgs who in 1964 pointed to such a particle as the force that gave mass to matter and made the universe possible. But other mysteries of physics and cosmology -- supersymmetry, dark matter and dark energy among them -- are at the focus of experiments in the 27-km (17-mile) circular tunnel deep underneath the Swiss-French border.

Jacaylbaro Posted September 9, 2008 What is the Big Bang in Somali ?? ,, mabaan fahmin waxay sheegayaan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nuune Posted September 9, 2008 ^^ You never heard of BIG BANG, in Af Somali, it means qub-qac dhanka-lalax Basically, they are trying to know how the universe started or was formed, or life as a whole, and through endless research for almost 100 years now, they finally came up with this experiment, They believe, there is this invisible stuff which is called 'dark matter'. There is currently much ongoing research by scientists attempting to discover exactly what this dark matter is, how much there is, and what effect it may have on the future of the Universe as a whole. Anyway, ha wataan tijaabooyinkooda, bal waxa ka soo baxa aan aragno. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SayidSomal Posted September 9, 2008 Apparently this scientist have being receiving death threaths from people who are scared the world might end tomorrow. BTW - isn't the Big Bang Theory mentioned in the Qur'an? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nuune Posted September 9, 2008 ^^ Ma asaaba malaaig rumeesan horta, Johny, what do you think of this experiment?, do you think it is something that can enlighten you up a bit more mise waa something that would make you heyhaata heyhaata, or simply, you don't give a coin about it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johnny B Posted September 9, 2008 Nuune, I think it'll help humanity understand more but the question is, is Humanity ready for surprises?, i think not. Some people are too willing to die for their beliefs regardless it being scientifically correct or incorrect. Man is so smart man can choose not to be smart.

Johnny B Posted September 9, 2008 ^therefore no need for scientific evaluation ? mise waxad ledahay, mira ..... lagu liqaa? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacaylbaro Posted September 9, 2008 We can use scientific evaluation up to some extend. Don't let your whole life depend on scientific evaluations, there are some things that are not inline with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
