I think the LHC is super neat-o

Today the Large Hadron Collider (or the LHC) went online for the first time. It’s the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator, and may fundamentally change the way in which we view the universe.

Also, it may be the first thing that humans have created that has the possibility to annihilate the planet Earth.

I highly recommend that if you have even an ounce of scientific interest that you take the time to read up a little on it. At the very least check out the pictures, they will blow your mind.
