Hardon is more like it. This kind of big-dickery on the frontiers of nuclear physics is expensive, and the concrete benefits are unknown at this point.
I'm all for the expansion of human knowledge, and I hope they find out the reason that matter has mass.
Will America make a bigger one? How long before there's a ring around the earth to accelerate protons? |

What if the proton people just turn out to be us but from another dimension? I guess everything would be back to normal? Humanity killing itself off. |

I like the photos too since it shows you the large size that this actually is.
People can donate their computing power to analyze all the data at
