Ok, so the original design spec was for 574 TeV(× 10^-7) per nucleus. This firing was at 450 GeV(× 10^-10) per particle. So, 1000 orders of magnitude lower than intended, so far. Still holding out for a high level test not going wrong...again

Edit: More information. They plan to scale up the beam to about 3.5 TeV by 2010 but it will have to be shut down after that to get the beam up to its intended 7TeV scale. 7TeV is the intended target and it is still a long way off (7x82(atomic weight of lead)=574 number above). A lot can go wrong in that amount of time, best of luck to them!

The Tevatron will most likely stay the more powerful collider till sometime in mid/later 2010

Laughing Gas is funny.... very funny

Interesting, they seem very aware as well. I wonder how aware you are in NO2?

LHC is back online!

Back when it first broke, I remember them saying they never planed to get it fixed enough to do what it was originally designed to do...making only slightly more powerful than other colliders. I have been unable to find any information on if it has been left in this reduced state or is back at 100% of original design specifications.

Skydiving with a Peregrine Falcon

When he catches the bait box and peals off, I was surprised his bones could handle it. Hollow bones ftw?

Meteor lights up the sky over Utah (11-18-09)

Crazy bright. I wonder what the average luminosity of a meteorite is.

All The Deaths From 'Total Recall' -- Hint: There's A Lot

The 80s, a simpler time. Where extreme violence, and at least one set of boobies per rated R movie was required.

Hannity: Jon Stewart Was Right

You're putting the cart before the horse and already assuming that is what happened. The only REAL difference between the 2 videos was the anchors knew one wasn't correct because it was blindly obvious, and the former they weren't able to. If you want to give people the benefit of the doubt that's fine, just try and be consistent is what I am saying.

Hannity: Jon Stewart Was Right

>> ^volumptuous:
Sorry GeesusFreak, broadcast media doesn't work like that.

Even if the editor was given specific pieces, he/she would STILL know what was going on. At that point, you are either ethical, or you are not. These people are not ethical, as history has shown time and time again. This isn't even a debate. It's empirical.

I understand the need to label MSNBC as some far-left bastion of communist propaganda. But unless you have any links to when that news org has ever misused footage to bolster their mis-truths and bias, I'm just not going to believe it.

Federal Reserve Is An Abortion Of A Banking Regulator

Hey great sift. Why don't you hear from reasonable people like this on the main stream news. Even if it was some person spouting some ideology that I don't agree with, the tone of this ACTUAL interview is a scarce thing now a days. Thanks for the sift!

NASA: Water found in Moon crater

Come and listen to a story about a government body named NASA
A poor underfunded government organization, barely kept its hundreds of thousands of families fed,
Then one day he was shootin at some moon,
And up through the ground came a bubblin' crude.

Water that is, clear gold, for making tea.

Well the first thing you know ol' NASA's a worth is billions there,
Country folk said NASA move away from here
Said Moonyforinia is the place you ought to be
So they loaded up the rockets and moved to Heilein crater B.

hole, that is.
Swimmin pools, moving stars.

The NASA Hillbillies!
