Time Flowing Backwards & CERN Turned Lead to Gold

In a case of modern-day alchemy, for the first time ever, CERN turned lead into gold. CERN researchers achieved this by aiming beams of lead at each other, which traveled at close to the speed of light.

CERN is also building their new particle accelerator, which is going to be over 57 miles in length. That’s over 3 times the size of the current one! So what are they really studying, and what’s and the purpose of the Large Hadron Collider?

In related news, physicists found that in the quantum realm, time could be flowing in reverse all around us. They said that at the subatomic level, we can’t always see obvious changes that indicate time’s passage.

Live Q&A: “Why is gold so precious?” “What if atoms are little solar systems or galaxies? Are particle accelerators and hadron colliders murdering millions of life forms?” “Where is the Fountain of Youth located?” “If you saw a portal in the forest, would you go in and find out what’s on the other side, or stay away and just wonder?” And more!
