Here's a little something to edumacate you so you can stop peeing your pants:
"There have been a lot of reports lately about the apocalyptic September 10, when an international team of physicists will attempt to circulate a beam through the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), as part of an experiment meant to explore the missing pieces in the Universe puzzle.
But how accurate are these predictions that portray the LHC experiment as the releaser of black holes that will destroy Earth and humankind? As scary as it may sound, these predictions are far from being true, and this can easily be explained through simple physics.
The probability that black holes will appear is something to take into consideration, however, even if black holes would indeed form, they would be very small ones, which would evaporate into the shower of particles. The black holes pessimists are expecting to see are universal-scaled ones, and that is impossible to recreate with the given energy in the LHC.
?The LHC will enable us to study in detail what nature is doing all around us,? said CERN Director General Robert Aymar last week, amid fears that the LHC experiment will go bad. ?The LHC is safe, and any suggestion that it might present a risk is pure fiction.?
According to a study published in Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, ?if particles at the LHC had the power to destroy Earth, we would have never been given the chance to exist, because regular interactions with more energetic cosmic rays would already have destroyed the Earth or other astronomic bodies.?
