Examples of stupidity and other stuff ranging from events to reviews on flims and games
BBC Breakfast News are reporting the LHC will now be offline until at least Spring next year. The restart collides with the winter maintenance period, pushing back the restart date. The maintenance period is used to save on energy through the winter months while demand is high.
Doomsayers can relax, well for an extra two months at minimum.
Liquid helium which is used to cool the LHC down to it’s operating temperature of almost absolute zero has leaked, due to a failure in a magnet which guides the protons around. It will take several weeks to warm up to allow engineers to fix the problem and several weeks for the collider to get back down to operating temperature.
