The LHC Is Really Cool!

BBC NEWS | LHC gets colder than deep space
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiment has once again become one of the coldest places in the Universe.

All eight sectors of the LHC have now been cooled to their operating temperature of 1.9 kelvin (-271C; -456F) - colder than deep space.
I'm getting way too excited about this.

I think my comment on black holes in your pocket I just posted a few posts up goes here as well! We will destroy ourselves eventually... I sure hope the ride is fun :)
