imagine if lets say 95% of that military funding went into the us education system do we really think that the us would be in the shit it is now
[2012-04-22 09:06:56] NiamOfAsuras - Imagine the outcome ...Imagine the outcome if the budgets were switched around.
[2012-04-16 21:38:49] Tehodrakis - war is everythings ...war is everythings father. dont forget how many inventions were made because of or during war. no money spent on research is wasted. no money will ever be wasted as it feeds ppl by causing economy.
[2012-04-13 11:29:11] petden0 - awesome.awesome.
[2012-04-13 05:01:32] theend1245 - waste of money.waste of money.
[2012-04-11 05:01:35] douro20 - I'd like to share a ...I'd like to share a couple of more examples of how the particle physics community helped develop the Internet as it is today. The first complete Web site- what Dr. Tim Berners-Lee called HTML's "killer app"- was developed and hosted at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. Mosaic- the first graphical web browser- was developed by NCSA, an organization which has developed numerous software algorithms for particle physics research.
[2012-04-11 04:05:44] douro20 - If there were to be ...If there were to be a large Norwegian particle accelerator they should call it Thor or Mjollnir.
[2012-04-11 03:53:27] douro20 - I begin to wonder ...I begin to wonder how often a particle physicist writes out an equation and then has to use a piece of equipment the size of the a small city to test it...
[2012-04-04 13:36:45] funcounting - Wars give a lot of ...Wars give a lot of profit to warmongers nothing's done without a reason.
[2012-03-21 02:36:07] masluxx - i am glad they do ...i am glad they do not do biology like this....smach frogs together and look at the goo that comes out to see how frogs wrok.
[2012-03-20 18:04:06] tomtoonotavaiable - "This is a real ..."This is a real boy toy." If he would say that to the girls working at lhc ? ;)
[2012-03-11 11:42:57] wowsa0 - The internet was ...The internet was invented by the US military around the 1960s or 70s I think, the web is different, that was invented in the 80s by particle physicists at CERN. Google it and you'll find out pretty easily what the difference is.
[2012-03-07 01:52:23] Velox415 - But... I'm a girl ...But... I'm a girl that likes smashing things apart, I want to play too. :( I never smashed my Hotwheels, but I did break apart phones and remotes.
[2012-02-23 06:54:04] bleesev2 - I like the idea. ...I like the idea. However, America only spends Half of what you suggested (600 billion) still, that's 60 LHC's
[2012-02-14 17:02:30] tmafkap - Don't be too proud ...Don't be too proud of particle physicists having invented the world wide web. They might get sued by the entertainment industry as soon as those greedy bastiches learn about that...
[2012-02-13 11:36:24] CarsMutley1995 - The Large Hard-on ...The Large Hard-on Collider is definitely worth the money. ; )
[2012-02-13 11:34:56] CarsMutley1995 - Coincidence? I ...Coincidence? I think not!
[2012-02-12 08:51:18] aluisious - Feel free to vote ...Feel free to vote that way, but I don't agree, and most don't.
[2012-01-31 15:43:16] BlueCosmology - "our governments ..."our governments already have substantial knowledge of phsysics that will never be revealed to the general public. dating way back to the 1940's. Nikolai Tesla ..for instance" They really, really, really don't. Practically every single discovery in physics is immediately made entirely public before the government even knows about it.
[2012-01-26 08:39:22] MrJarth - @motionapplied ...@motionapplied retard.
[2012-01-22 19:14:50] Draxis32 - @motionapplied What ...@motionapplied What the hell are you talking about? You sound like a crazy nazist prick...from what I could understand is that you say that Wars are the reason we do research? Hell no my friend, you forget what war is, war is the interest of the few. Science doesn't have enough funds because there is no interest in it. War have a lot of people interested because it gives more money, and therefore, power.
[2012-01-21 20:22:55] mrrobotica - The 17 billion ...The 17 billion dollars spent on NASA should be left in the free market and space exploration should be left to the private sector. The military, and national defense, on the other hand, can only be properly handled by the government.
[2012-01-07 16:19:45] Quintinohthree - @TheManGuyDude And ...@TheManGuyDude And that's only in one direction. When you add the speeds of both directions up things become interesting because then Einsteinian relativity comes into play.
[2011-12-20 03:26:36] Arwiiss - I sometimes read ...I sometimes read complains about these kinds of things costing so much and having very little return like most advanced telescope(1 billion) or LHC (10 billion) but once you think that US alone spends 1.2(120 new LHC's every year!) trillion USD on war and their defense YEARLY you than realize how little science actually gets and if every humanity will ever travel to other solar system using some kind of extra dimensions or w/e it's only because of guys in CERN that lies down foundation.
[2011-11-28 11:29:46] ErizotDread - As far as I'm ...As far as I'm concerned, the hubble pictures like deep field, and the casini saturn pictures make all of that money infinitely more worth it than the billions they spend on national defense every year.
[2011-10-13 18:06:04] SoulShepherd84 - These videos are ...These videos are so awesome!
[2011-09-23 18:48:21] emikochan13 - It's hard to say ...It's hard to say really, since greater survival often hinges on harnessing greater amounts of energy, and that can be used for good or ill. Science is fortunately/unforortunately, completely neutral. A starship engine that could take us to the stars, could be turned around and become a death ray... Orion drives are a great example of this, powered by nuclear bombs..
[2011-09-16 06:12:44] baadshepherd - Does it bother ...Does it bother anyone else that the top rated comment on an educational video has such bad spelling?
[2011-08-31 17:57:08] vkotis - Exactly! Can you ...Exactly! Can you imagine how much more progress could have been made if we, as humans, concentrated more on figuring out how to survive as a whole instead of ways to kill eachother?!
[2011-07-13 09:04:01] Jovial86 - *smash**smash*
[2011-07-07 07:51:27] TheManGuyDude - Speed of Light - ...Speed of Light - Speed of LHC beam = Speed of world's fastest man.
[2011-06-25 23:06:07] MrIndieguitar - I replayed 3:08I replayed 3:08
[2011-06-23 02:43:56] Eembu - Pretty cool stuff, ...Pretty cool stuff, I hope the answer is in there. I wonder if there are other ways to extract particles other than colliding them together, because it seems like a lot energy and time is wasted. I could think of one way: maybe just heat a Hadron to extreme temperatures and see if it explodes? I'd think it would require less materials.
[2011-06-04 22:41:48] simonk512 - wow, a disturbing ...wow, a disturbing point of view, these experiments are just going to result in the ability to destroy more people at once, and woo hoo at the same time some fun science... worth it?
[2011-06-03 19:17:53] truesemite - holy cows did you ...holy cows did you see how he smashed his fists together at 1:15 !! i tryed it and it hurt !
[2011-05-24 15:33:14] banana1337kivi - @TheAnthonyDubois ...@TheAnthonyDubois You're kidding right?
[2011-05-20 17:09:39] captainbatguano - this is just the ...this is just the beginning though. to really see the instant of the big bang we would need an accelerator the size of our solar system.
[2011-05-01 03:53:12] Typho0n86 - Most people dont ...Most people dont believe in this, they think a god will come and save them in the end. We have to change peoples mindset before we can progress.

[2011-04-17 18:13:32] 1RadicalOne - I have actually ...I have actually spoken with people who flat-out say that there is more value in killing "brown people" than researching "that nerd sh**". And no, they were not just a random person on the internet.
[2011-04-12 14:16:43] dreasim - the only difference ...the only difference between men and boys is the price of the toys LOL.
