Laurent a recueilli quelques commentaires des lecteurs de tf1.fr sur une article concernant le LHC. C’est courageux de sa part mais consternant. Ce trou noir là aspire toute intelligence.
Pour ne pas mourir idiot, une belle citation de Leon Lederman, Nobel de physique 1988 sur les accélérateurs de particules.
Today we visit Stonehenge or Great Pyramids, and we marvel first at their beauty and at the technological achievement of building them. But they had a scientific purpose as well; they were crude “observatories” for tracking astronomical bodies. So we must also stand in awe of how ancient cultures were driven to errect grand structures in order to measure the movements of the heavens in an attempt to understand and live in harmony with the universe. Form and function combined in the pyramids and Stonehenge to allow their creators to seek scientific truths. Accelerators are our pyramids, our stonehenge.
