Uhhh, did Cern burn down??

[nutnspecial]

So I'm just hearing the Cern Hadron Collider had a massive failure in the form of a near nuclear explosion/meltdown?

Like 3 weeks ago??? Nothing on the network news- Anybody kno wtf is going on with this sketchy science experiment?

Close. They discovered a new Higgs-Boson. You know what that means.

Yep there's talk of that I found a write up http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2015-12/16/cern-large-hadron-collider-discovered-a-new-particle
I heard people saying it melted down, but I'm seeing literally no evidence

That thing does give me pause tho

I dunno about CERN itself, but I think Kai might've saved the planet by towing the actual collider off into space before it fired up.

I don't know if the Lexx has fired yet, though, so we could still be doomed.
