Nice =D It's a good demonstration of accelerator evolution too - the first ring is PS (Proton Synchrotron), CERN's 1959 star with 628m circumference. The next is the SPS (Super Proton Syncrotron) of 1976, with a 7km round trip. The last ring is good old LHC, a 27km monster. CERN... more

Awesome animation of the accelerated protons in the LHC. Great.

A remarkable demonstration as to how a Collider works I think

is this what makes that light that shoots out of the ocean?

CERN didn't want to waste their power, so chained them all together, vastly speeding up the overall acceleration of a particle. Considering the science that came from the first two, LHC looks to have a formidable career ahead. And no, a black hole isn't going to engulf the world.

So this is what happens right before the world ends.

Installing is Easy!
