The Science

Here's a little 1amscience preview.

Do you know anything about particle physics? Astrophysics? Physics? Well, even if you don't, if you're at this site you probably know a little bit about time travel (if not I'll direct you to Back to the Future, Flight of the Navigator, or any of a few thousand time travel films, but not Primer. At least not to start). If you haven't heard about the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) I'll do my best to sum up what it does in a few words: it's a big ring that smashes atoms that move very very very fast at each other. Accelerating protons up to a very small fraction below the speed of light is pretty awesome, but just don't stare at the picture of the LHC below for too long because it looks like it might swallow you whole.

The Rhythm (11)

Another week brings us news from around the intertubes. First, this morning there was a massive earthquake in Japan with huge tsunami waves hitting the west coast of the US. After the serious stuff is out of the way, Facebook trying to beat out Netflix? News on the Zelda 25 Anniversary straight from Reggie Fils-Aime (president of NOA) and Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright talk about the next film in their trilogy. Of course, you come for the news and stay for the rumors: GTA V and MIB 3. Read on.

The Rhythm: We hate Navi just as much as you.
