And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Physicists recreated a black hole in a lab, which then shone with light
When they detonated the first atomic bomb, they honestly wondered if it would burn off the atmosphere. There were serious concerns over CERN and whether it might alter the physical universe when it became operational. Seriously, do any of these scientists give one $#!+ about humanity when they conduct these experiments?
I can't speak to the atom bomb test concern (although I thought that was more to some of the larger fusion bomb tests).
The "concern" over the CERN accelerator, as well as RHIC etc., are and always were unserious. Higher collision energies than those machines could ever achieve, happen every single day as cosmic rays hit the Earth's atmosphere, and have for billions of years. Makes for good tabloids, but fundamentally unserious or we wouldn't be here to fuss about it.
Plus the whole hoolabaloo about "creating a black hole that will swallow Earth" is utterly nonsense - the micro- black koles would evaporate almost instantly IF they would form. As for "... these scientists give one $#!+ about humanity when they conduct these experiments", well how exactly would progress be achieved? A stagnant society is a dying society, so I'll cite David Hilbert: "We must know, we will know!".
That's not something to play with. How would the risk vs. the benefits help us. MFs are so smart they are stupid. What if calculations are off by a fraction
If the calculations are off by a fraction, then, generally whatever it is you're trying to do doesn't work - best case nothing happens. Otherwise, usually the machine winds up destroying itself.
Play with it all they want. They are pretending to be gods and God will not be mocked. It will bear no fruit. Someone will believe them, but it is all for not.
Physicists did no such thing. They programmed a computer simulation that did exactly as it was programmed to do. Yes, that is circular logic, thanks for noticing.

Ask Hiroshima and Nagasaki about scientists and human progress.
Deletecf. the Wuhan Biological Research institute.

ReplyDeleteIf you believe it's mockery, I'm sorry for you. It's a quest to understand how the universe works ... honest questioning.

ReplyDeleteExactly.
DeleteLet’s move this lab Wuhan’s and make Fauci the lead on it.
