it's always Pleasant to hear about some
groundbreaking discovery from our dear
scientists and researchers but when the
discovery takes another turn especially
when it's something that has the
potential to cause a worldwide blackout
fear prevails join us in this video as
we discuss cern's discomforting
announcement regarding the activation of
the famous Large Hadron Collider and
what potential threats this new
development brings to our world
thank you
understanding our world is something we
can never get tired of from NASA to
Tesla and hundreds of other
organizations there's a never-ending
hunger for discovering the unknown and
so while organizations like NASA and
Tesla focus on space and Interstellar
exploration companies like CERN try to
learn more about the Earth itself and
unlock any of its hidden potential in
case you're not familiar with the name
CERN is the European Organization for
nuclear research it is one of the
largest and most respected centers for
scientific research worldwide at CERN
scientists physicists and Engineers try
to unravel the mysteries of our universe
and answer the most mind-bending
questions in science they investigate
other dimensions dark matter and other
unproven theories using large and
complex scientific instruments you've
never seen before
CERN is known for its groundbreaking
discoveries like neutral currents Higgs
boson and the God particle however as
you know the thirst for scientific
knowledge never ends and so despite all
these CERN still presses to uncover more
mysteries in the fabric of the universe
one of the things CERN hopes to discover
is magnetic monopoles magnetic monopoles
are particles that have either a North
or South Pole only usually any magnetic
particle should have both North and
South Poles but monopoles have only one
although these particles exist in theory
scientists have never found them despite
searching for the past Century this
search is one of the things that led to
the birth of colliders colliders are
supposed to cause a collision of
particles so that scientists can then
study the products of the resultant
explosions although scientists expected
monopoles to be born from their
colliders none has been found so far the
drive to discover new types of particles
and perhaps monopod holes drove them to
create the giant particle collider the
LHC the LHC is the Large Hadron Collider
a super particle accelerator made to
propel subatomic particles to extreme
energy levels in a controlled manner so
that scientists can study their
interactions as they move and Collide in
simple terms particle colliders smash
atoms to Pieces allowing scientists to
study the results before this smashing
can occur the particle must first be
accelerated or pushed using electricity
the Hadron Collider can speed up these
particles so fast that they move at
almost the speed of light the LHC uses
electromagnets to function the
electromagnets use a current of over 11
000 amperes to generate the magnetic
field plus a superconducting coil inside
the LHC ensures no electrical energy
gets lost during current transmission
the LHC is located about 328 feet below
ground it measures approximately 3.8
meters in width and its walls are lined
with very sturdy concrete its location
was also carefully chosen to minimize
the background radiation the Earth's
crust provides thanks to all these the
LHC can produce some potent magnetic
fields about 1 000 times stronger than
the Earth's magnetic field the LHC
features thousands of lattice magnets
which are used to adjust the trajectory
of the particles in short the LHC is a
27 kilometer ring of superconducting
magnets some special magnets called
dipole magnets are also used to bend the
particle paths the LHC has about 1 300
of these dipoles each of them weighs 35
tons and measures 15 meters in length
given the size and length of these
magnets alone you can imagine how
cumbersome the LHC is and how much time
money and resources it took to build it
currently the LHC operates at such
tremendous energy that trillions of
particles can Circle across the collider
11 000 times per second such terrific
speed makes this collider the number one
in the world the part articles in the
LHC are constantly accelerated via the
use of accelerators as one beam of
protons is blasted in One Direction
Another is sent in the opposite to
collide with the first the LHC is
unarguably the world's greatest and most
advanced particle collider and so you
can imagine the joy of the science
Community when it finally became
operational after three years of waiting
this invention was born from the
European Union's desire to increase our
understanding of the universe so the
building process was done meticulously
lasting several years and from its
initial launch the Large Hadron Collider
proved a valuable tool in scientific
discovery building such a complex
machine was no small feat you see
through the high energy collisions
within the LHC scientists learn more
about the intricate structure of the
subatomic world the collisions that
happen within particle colliders are not
strange to science they happen every day
in the atmosphere around us every time
these collisions occur a complex spray
of other smaller part articles is
released as products however the
products from these natural collisions
are pretty Elusive and Decay rapidly
some decay in less than a second making
it impossible for scientists to study
them directly in their natural
environment the only way to explore them
is in the vast tunnel of the particle
collider construction of This
Magnificent structure took about five
years starting in 1983 and ending in
1988 the cost of the construction was
about 7.5 billion euros this cost earned
it the number one spot among the most
expensive scientific instruments ever
built because particles Collide about
600 million times per second in the
Large Hadron Collider the data generated
by the LHC and its simulations every
year is estimated to be about 15
petabytes a petabyte is equivalent to 1
000 terabytes you can imagine how tough
it must be for CERN scientists to review
that amount of data every year no wonder
the LHC is a collaborative project
incorporating scientists from all over
the world not just from Switzerland the
LHC became operational on September 10
2008. however due to a magnet quench
incident its initial testing period got
delayed for over a year the incident led
to the damage of over 50 superconducting
magnets and their surrounding components
and so it wasn't until 2010 that the LHC
finally got its opportunity to shine
from 2010 till 2013 scientists could
witness a never-before-seen spectacle as
protons and Lead nuclei were fired at
mind-blowing energies into head-on
collisions this event was a truly
revolutionary moment for science but
then it wasn't enough however as all
sophisticated as the LHC was something
still needed to be corrected because of
this the team at CERN felt this super
collider required a makeover and so it
was shut down in 2013 remade and
launched again in 2015. the two-year
upgrade was termed long shutdown
one-inch or LS1 during that time CERN in
enhance the lhc's accelerators and
detectors and replace some of its
magnetic systems they did all these so
that the device could function at full
power thus in 2015 it was reactivated
however in 2018 the Large Hadron
Collider was shut down again to receive
some further upgrades this time around
CERN wanted to improve the Luminosity of
the LHC the Luminosity of a collider is
the ratio between the interaction
cross-section and the event rate simply
put it's the number of collisions that
happen in a given time more Luminosity
would make for more data that scientists
could use and so CERN upgraded the LHC
to a high beam Luminosity device this
time more than ever CERN was trying to
get to the root of monopoles and dark
matter if you're a Sci-Fi fan you will
have heard about the Dark Matter before
dark matter is material believed to
exist in space and take several forms
they do not absorb reflect or emit light
hence their name more so they can't be
seen directly and they can't be detected
electromagnetically scientists believe
these types of matter came into
existence soon after the big bang Dark
Matter was another puzzle CERN wanted to
crack with the Large Hadron Collider you
would think that after undergoing three
years of upgrades for two Good Times the
LHC would return to give a scientific
breakthrough but it didn't instead it
caused something unexpected something
more of a catastrophe than a
breakthrough you see soon after its
launch and initiation when scientists at
CERN turned up the Large Hadron Collider
with the new maximum energy beam they
detected something unexpected in our
planet shocking data from CERN
when the LHC reopened in April 2022 with
its new maximum beam energy rather than
detecting dark matter or monopoles
scientists soon detected a crack in the
Earth's magnetic field in other words
CERN cracked Earth's magnetic field in
its pursuit of dark matter and monopoles
you see the Earth's magnetic field does
not crack the only thing that seems like
a crack is an opposition existing
between the magnetic fields pointing
South and those pointing North these two
forces partially canceled out each other
causing a small space to open at the
equinoxes
this particular crack stayed open for 14
hours straight something that's never
happened before if you're wondering if
other worldly beings may have slipped
through this crack into our world you
can rest easy no one entered and besides
the Earth's magnetic field is not a
protective barrier from other dimensions
or worldly beings rather this barrier
protects the Earth from the powerful
solar winds you see it's not only the
ozone layer that curbs the effects of
our blazing sun the Earth's magnetic
field also resists it we don't give
enough credit to Earth's magnetic field
it's a vital force that maintains the
balance on our dear Planet thanks to
this field our compasses Point North and
animals can travel or migrate long
distances and still find their way home
successfully most important of all is
the fact that the magnetic field
safeguards our atmosphere from the
harmful effects of solar winds solar
winds are very powerful if the magnetic
field didn't curb these winds they could
rip our ozone layer apart if you've ever
seen auroras in the sky they're caused
by these winds you see auroras are
beautiful from down here on Earth over
there in space they're Dreadful and you
wouldn't want to stick your hand and
grab those light rays like you must have
thought NASA experts have emphasized the
danger of solar winds and how they can
wreak havoc on satellites and cause
city-wide blackouts this is why NASA has
recently been actively monitoring and
tracking the magnetic field and guess
what they've noticed that the magnetic
intensity has weakened significantly and
most of all there is a significant error
in the area spanning South America and
Southwest Africa so scientists have
called this the South Atlantic anomaly
it's not clear whether these weakened
spots are a direct result of the
activation of the super beam collider
but the incident with the broken
magnetic field line has led many to
believe so
nonetheless these weakened zones spell
serious trouble for us researchers are
most concerned about the numerous
satellites and spacecraft in orbit the
increased exposure to the solar flare
will be felt more by these crafts than
by humans some of the most vital
communication systems today are orbited
in space telephone radio television and
even the internet use satellite
Communications as more high-energy solar
charged particles continue to get to
these satellites they may malfunction or
have other forms of technical glitches
even worse the sun is on a rampage these
days as its flares are increasing
producing more powerful bursts of energy
our sun doesn't just give off heat or
light and radiation there's also
something called coronal mass ejections
or CMEs which are massive eruptions on
the sun's surface that arise due to
instabilities in the sun's magnetic
field
CMEs can be so powerful that they can
cause Nationwide blackouts and disrupt
communication systems in seconds usually
when these CMEs are released in excess
amounts they're referred to as solar
storms these storms carry electrical
charges and heat moving rapidly toward
the Earth Elon Musk lost 40 of his
SpaceX satellites in one of such storms
in early 2022 if you've ever seen a
Northern Light it occurred because of a
solar storm when these things happen
they paint the skies with a breathtaking
display of colorful lights however as
dazzling as they seem these solar storms
are great potential for Havoc
potential threats
NASA has announced that two massive
flare eruptions are hurtling toward
Earth at nearly 2 million miles per hour
if this results in a storm we could
experience radio navigation frequency
disruptions satellite malfunction and
even Global Internet disorders resulting
in losses as high as trillions of
dollars of course all this is just
speculation but it may not be far from
the truth one of the most catastrophic
effects of solar storms was the Quebec
event in 1989 extreme solar storms
knocked out power in various parts of
Quebec the Carrington event of 1859 was
another terrible one and was the worst
solar storm in history it caused
sparking and fires in many areas and
also resulted in the damage of telegraph
systems worldwide but as destructive as
it was this event lit the night sky with
beautiful bright lights that ouch on the
moon that's the thing with solar storms
while they do devastating damage they
also cause astonishing Sky decorations
given the recent turn of events we could
Now find ourselves at the mercy of such
a storm again scientists still have a
long way to go in understanding the
mysteries of the sun and the Earth's
magnetic field there's a high chance
that the use of the Large Hadron
Collider may have caused the recent
flaws in the Earth's magnetic field
system CERN broke our magnetic field
opening a pathway for solar winds to
invade the Earth some skeptical folks
have even developed the theory that CERN
may have opened up a portal to another
dimension and is simply keeping it away
from the public could this be true let
us know what you think in the comment
section
as far back as 2008 when the LHC first
launched some onlookers believed that it
would cause the end of the world there's
just no way you can bring together so
many magnets without any consequences
after all the magnetic power of the
Large Hadron Collider far exceeds that
of the earth maybe this is just the
beginning of the damage the LHC will do
some theories even suggest this super
collider would one day draw an asteroid
from space that would come to destroy
Earth we don't know that for sure for
now all we know is that all scientific
hands have to be on deck for us to
neutralize the risks associated with the
incoming solar storms otherwise it could
be a truly Dark Day for Humanity if for
instance the internet gets to shut down
for a whole day whatever the case may be
it's all up to CERN and other
world-leading Tech and research
organizations to come up with viable
Solutions
