Unrelated fact: 4 trillion degrees Celsius is the recently updated hottest man-made temperature.

If so, I could only watch the beginning (or am I missing the point here?)







Luckily, I'm hyper-active

Not the same, but it may seem so for the layman.

Oh man it will last that long?! I won't be listening to such a long conference no no, if it was a NASA conference on a first contact with aliens I'd watch a 24 h conference if I have to, but so much talking on a particle that is barely detectable... I guess I'll watch a resume

Hey, you two, when real researchers go public, they have to present solid proof, answer all upcoming questions and be absolutely sure that what they do is right. If the Higgs boson is discovered, this is one of the surefire nobel prize winners.

Unlike presidential announcements, this lengthy talk will detail all sources of information, how they were derived and where they came from.



It's safe to say each spokesperson will take an hour for their presentation, the CERN director half an hour and then there'll be the questions you can easily skip.

I´d liked to watch it if I can get out of the bed that early

But cern has a webcast archive. You should be able to find it, there.

awtch thats early.. Is it possible watch later?

(if not please record this for me, I'm interested)

It'll definitely be in the news and I'd be surprised if there wouldn't be video uploads of it.



Anyways, I hate standing up, early, too. I'm all in for the cookies, though!

Yeah, I'll definitely try to find time and watch this announcement.
