A must-read article on the Future of Physics. If you read only one physics article I post here, this should be it! I think its interesting that when the moon is full, at high tide, the land near Geneva rises 25 cm, and the LHC's circumference increases by 1 millimeter, and the beam energy changes by 0.02 percent. The experimenters must allow for this effect. Another interesting fact, the proton velocity in the LHC is 99.9999991% of light speed.
