My understanding of the Large Hadron Collider could be written in longhand on the back of a postage stamp and there would still be a sizable space for you to lick it without getting your tongue covered in ink. <\/p>\n

However, I’m pretty certain that it doesn’t operate over the internet. <\/p>\n

There’s a black hole of non-connectedness between the LHC and a website that reports on it. Although you might not immediately assume this to be the case, if you are a journalist. Someone has hacked a Cern discussion website.<\/a> This was presented almost as if it was a near miss hack of the LHC.<\/p>\n

Hackers claim there\u2019s a black hole in the atom smashers\u2019 computer network<\/strong>
\nHackers have broken into one of the computer networks of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). …..
\nThe work of the scientists was not derailed and insiders scoffed at claims that the hackers were \u201cone step away\u201d from the systems controlling the experiment itself.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Of course, it is always possible that CERN are running a public webserver off the same computer that it uses to control the LHC. Just almost off the scale of “unlikely”….. <\/p>\n

It truly would be “one giant step for mankind” if you could make elementary particles collide by writing really elegant php code.<\/p>\n
