Big Bang recreation - news?

Has this experiment, in Switzerland I think, been a success? I seem to recall the news coverage when it first got underway, stating that there would be updates 'next year', well there's not that much of next year as it were, left, so I am wondering if it stalled? Flopped? Delayed? Any one know? Cheers.
This silly set up does not allow for 'proper' further comments from the original poster so it will have to do here. Thanks folks, and thanks for that link.

If anyone successfully recreates the big bang... Then they'd have created an entire universe. Otherwise, it's just throwing things in a chamber and screaming "SUCCESS!!!" after something strange happens, which is precisely what they did.

Incidentally, they did it under excessive pressure... pressure in space is zero... And they did it under extremely intense heat equal to multiples of our sun's core... and space is known as one of the coldest places around. If this was to have anything to do with the big bang, it simply proves that we didn't all spawn from nothing, but rather an environment conducive to our creation as they have shown with the need to create it in a lab.

So there's your answer! We are the creation of some alien race sitting around in a laboratory! Huzzah!

Random fact, I'm a Christian, but love a laugh.

I have one more link for you. The RAP song that the technicians at CERN made that explains what they hope to discover.

Listen to the music and the words to the CERN RAP song.

Not entirely sure what you mean, but are you refering to the experiments of the Large Hadron Collider? This large particle accelerator is able to re-create the conditions of the 'big-bang' have a look here for news: http://lhc.web.cern.ch/lhc/News.htm

xD the lhc isn't even completely finished. there are several big experiments which will be done in the next few years.

the energy in the lhc still isn't enough for several things like proving string theory etc.

so all they want to try is a mini " big bang".

anyway: in the beginning of the world there were incredible temperatures and incredible pressure, that's why they try to do the same.


sorry for my crappy english. i am german :P

The big bang may in fact be the same mistaken theory as the ether of the 19th century but recently ether theory has made a startling reappearance in some circles. Scientists do the best they can with the accuracy of the instruments they have in the era they live in.

So far the lhc is only a black hole pit for money.
