Large Hadron Collider restart, end of the world pushed back to mid-November




Geeker science technology: hardron collider 07 21 09 Large Hadron Collider restart, end of the world pushed back to mid November

Still undecided about what to do with those precious few months before the biggest doomsday since Y2K? Then you’re in luck, ’cause the much anticipated / feared restart of the Large Hadron Collider has now been delayed yet again, almost exactly a month after the last delay. This time it looks like a couple of vacuum leaks are the culprit, and CERN says that the collider is now unlikely to restart before mid-November, which just so happens to coincide with the peak of the Leonids meteor shower. Coincidence? Yes, yes it is.
