LHC Rap

Just for you [livejournal.com profile] meleah, it's the Large Hadron Rap. Show it to your kids - I'm probably going to show it to mine tomorrow.

Oooh. I think its a bit long for two classes that have nothing to do with physics except in the usual very general senses. But thanks, it amused me heaps!

I'm really tempted to take out a class from my astro class and show it, since I'm sure they've heard all the crackpot theories and it's worth my while to debunk them the best I can. I wish I understood it better though.

It was an entertaining video. I would agree that it would be a worthwhile use of a science class to talk about it. It's going to be awhile before something that expensive gets built for science again, and it will probably be just as long before something gets as much media attention. Even if the attention is people saying "OH NOES THEY'RE GOING TO DESTROYING THE WORLDS!!!111!!one" If I was a staff science person at a major media outlet I would probably haven resigned over this. It was just on ABC world news.
