As you may already know, CERNs Large Hadron Collider will be powered up soon (or may even have already been powered up by the time you read this!).
Described as the "world's most powerful particle accelerator", the LHC is designed to recreate the conditions that existed at the birth of the universe. Scientists are hoping that by activating the LHC, they will be able to find the so-called "God Particle". At this point, is it worth mentioning that the renowned physicist Stephen Hawking has a bet that God's Particle won't be found? Also, does the novel Angels and Demons indicate that Dan Brown believes that it will be found? Does anyone care?
Anyway, as with all good science, there is a fear that this will lead to the end of the world.
Just in case the World does end soon - I just want to say that we (or rather, Valve) called it first!
To be honest though, I'm not worried. As you can see here, preparations have been made for the worst case scenario!
