When scientists get close to revving...</description><link>http://www.newser.com/story/73815/physicists-bird-from-the-future-damaged-collider.html?utm_source=syn&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=tag</link><pubDate>Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:50:33 CST</pubDate></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.newser.com/story/73450/breadcrumb-latest-speed-bump-for-collider.html?utm_source=syn&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=tag</guid><title>Breadcrumb Latest Speed Bump for Collider</title><description>The enormous science project buried beneath the France-Switzerland border has seen all kinds of detours in its search for the so-called “God particle”—busted vacuum tubes, al-Qaeda moles—so the latest might not be a huge surprise: A piece of bread dropped by a bird onto an outdoor segment caused...</description><link>http://www.newser.com/story/73450/breadcrumb-latest-speed-bump-for-collider.html?utm_source=syn&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=tag</link><pubDate>Fri, 06 Nov 2009 6:29:00 CST</pubDate></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.newser.com/story/73173/god-machine-warming-up-for-2nd-startup-in-dec.html?utm_source=syn&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=tag</guid><title>'God Machine' Warming Up for 2nd Startup in Dec.</title><description>The Large Hadron Collider is ready to start smashing particles together again, equipment, the laws of nature, and the Almighty permitting.

While the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland remains out of order, Fermilab's facility in Chicago has been cranked up.
