Re:We'll all have flippers and tentacles by teatime! - 2008/09/10 22:30
There is alot of material out there about STRING THEORY and QUANTUM PHYSICS
Though to ordinary people like me and you we dont understand the "science" the actual theory behind it is quite simple.
Check out some websites - start with Wikipedia and look up String Theory and Quantum Theory. Look up things like Multiverses and Wormholes and time theories.
It is all very simple once you get the hang of it.
The hitting of particles together is a very extreme way of testing these theories. I dont think the experiment will work at all. I think it needs to be done on a scale about 10 or even 100 times bigger !! but I would love to be proved wrong.
If it works then scientists will be able to punch holes in time - because they will understand the way in which this can be done - time travel will be technically possible as well......though in reality it may be difficult to turn a proven theory into reality in what we understand as a three dimensional world.
As for the MAYAN 2012 calender - the Calender does not say the World ends. It just says one phase ends and so it is expected by the New Age movement that a new phase begins. The END OF THE WORLD merhants are always out protesting because one day they will be right :-_)
