A lot of things going to happen this week. Apple will announce it’s brand new iPod and may be a new iTunes 8.0 on the 9th. Sony plans to release more information on its official Malaysian PS3 launch. I’ll be going to AsterConference 2008, a series of conference in Asia dedicated to the world of Asterisk, the world most popular open source telephony software. And I also need to get my baju Raya from the tailor.
All that wont matter anymore, because on the September 10th, CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, will turn on the switch to it’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC). No doubt it is the most expensive and biggest physics experiment ever carried out by mankind. There is a reason why they call it the ‘Large Hadron Collider’ and not a ‘Small Hadron Collider’.
The Large Hadron Collider, is the world’s largest particle accelerator complex intended to collide opposing beams of 7 TeV protons. The word ‘Proton’ here refers to subatomic particles, not our national car manufacturer, we already know what happens when that ‘Proton’ collides, most of the time, it causes massive traffic jams on both side of the road.
