A community portal about Big Bang with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: In physical cosmology, the Big Bang is the scientific theory that the universe emerged from a tremendously dense and hot state about 13.7 billion years ago. The theory is based on the observations indicating the expansion of space as indicated by the Hubble redshift of distant galaxies taken together with the cosmological principle.

Or almost. Switch on for the Large Hadron Collider at CERN is due to happen on 10 September, 2008, marking the beginning of a physics experiment which intends to recreate conditions last seen a trillionth of a second after the Big Bang. The experiment involves smashing particles together in a 27 km ring, built 100m underground on the French-Swiss border. Racing at 99.99 per cent of the speed of light, particles will collide at the heart of massive detectors, allowing scientists a fleeting... Read Full Story

After an exciting start, a helium leak within the LHC tunnel (likely caused by a faulty electrical connection between two magnets), necessitated taking the project offline for repairs.
After a much heralded start on September 10, the world’s largest particle collider, the Large... Read Full Story
Apparently even conducting what is arguably the biggest experiment in the world is not bereft of security threats. The London Telegraph reports that hackers mounted an attack on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), got past its defence in depth strategy, and successfully hijacked Cern's website at smsmon.cern.ch, put up a page title "Greek Security Team" and referenced the hacking organization 2600. Half a dozen foreign files were also uploaded to the giant, nearly $8bn atom-smasher's... Read Full Story
