What will happen?
Best scenario:
Smashing 2 particles together, fusion, releases so much energy that a controlled version of this phenomenoa may help the energy problem in the world and reduce pollution (fusion power would not pollute at all).
The experiment could begin to unlock secrets at the quantum level. Eventually we might even be able to move through solid objects.
If the energy or mass created from the collisions is large enough, time could be distorted so much that it folds back on itself - creating a wormhole, or time tunnel, between the present and the future... possibilities of time travel, and moving through space very quickly.
Worst scenario:
Some say cosmic-ray collisions in the atmosphere are creating tiny black holes or strangelets all the time.
Maybe those zip by too fast to cause any trouble. In the LHC, some say the bad stuff could hang around long enough to be captured by Earth’s gravity and set off a catastrophe.
Otto Rossler: thinks it will create a quasar inside the planet.
"Nothing will happen for at least 4 years. Then someone will spot a light ray coming out of the Indian Ocean. A few weeks later we will see another stream of particles coming out of the soil on the other side of the planet... the weather will change completely, and there will be a Biblical Armageddon."
"…after 50 months the earth to a centimeter would have shrunk. It would be nothing more there, not only no more life, there but also the earth would be… a small black hole."
They plan to start smashing these particles together very soon. In 50 months time it will be very close to Dec 21, 2012.
