Check out the video and may you be taken on a journey for the next few minutes. Here is the description Wanderers is a vision of humanity's expansion into the Solar System, based on scientific ideas and concepts of what our future in space might look like, if it ever happens. The locations depicted in the film are digital recreations of actual places in the Solar System, built from real photos and map data where available. Without any apparent story, other than what you may fill in by yourself, the idea of the film is primarily to show a glimpse of the fantastic and beautiful nature that surrounds us on our neighboring worlds - and above all, how it might appear to us if ...

This machine could create a shower of black holes that would grow big enough to swallow up earth as we know it! Ahhhhhhhh, run for your lives! When this black hole forms, earth will first be flattened into a disk and jets of radiation will shoot out into space from both poles as we shrink into a black hole of a few millimeters in size. The LHC is a massive device created to observe the conditions of the Universe at the tiniest fractions of time after the Big Bang, and also to better understand the cosmos. There has already been a case filed to stop this...
