Whether It's Hiroshima's Supposed 'A-Bomb' or the Hadron Collider, Big Science's
• http://www.thedailybell.comChina's Supercollider Higgs Factory Will Be Twice The Size Of CERN's Large Hadron Collider … China could soon rival Europe and the U.S. as a global leader in the field of particle physics. The world's most populous country now also aims to build the world's most powerful supercollider to have a better understanding of the Higgs boson, the so-called god-particle. –Tech Times
China wants to build the biggest supercollider in the world and over in Switzerland, CERN reportedly wants to build a much larger supercollider as well.
We live in an era of Big Science that makes it clear only government and mega-corporations have the wherewithal to make scientific advances.
Space travel, nuclear weapons and the Hadron supercollider itself are all testimony to the necessity of the billions of dollars and thousands of scientific minds one needs to make a breakthrough.
Such bigness celebrates the cult of "scientism" (AKA corporatism) managed by aggregations of technocrats schooled at the best universities and propelled by the dogma of internationalism.
This is how global governance is built, piece by questionable piece. The claims of Big Science are often questionable, exaggerated or even faked. The goal is to make sure that people passively accept what they're told.
The supposed mile-long structures of the Manhattan Project to purify uranium, the fantastic facilities of NASA or the vast, ever-enlarging spheres of supercolliders, these constitute the theater of Big Science.
Big Finance is especially prone to such displays. Heaven forbid average people would try to create their own money. (Though certainly almost anyone could do a better job.)
The imposing granite and glass structures of modern central banking are intended to give an inviolable impression of power and infallibility – until one realizes that half the world is bankrupt.
And then there's the military-industrial complex, perhaps the worst offender of all. "Big War" industriously creates fabulous malfunctioning machines at the cost of billions. This is the price of freedom we're told.
Modern Big Science was likely initiated as a result of the Manhattan Project, the subsequent weaponization of the atom and vaporization of Hiroshima.
But in an article HERE, we've presented reports that Hiroshima was firedbombed not nuked. And HERE we may have discovered the actual group of pilots responsible for the firebombing.
And what is one to make of NASA's achievements? We recently stumbled on a Youtube video HERE that made the argument the lunar rover was nothing more than a dressed-up World War II jeep. Boeing nonetheless charged some $40 million for its "development."
HERE, one can see astronauts turning transparent as they enter and exit a portion of the International Space Station. There's apparently some sort of photographic trickery going on.
And HERE too (at the two-minute mark). How does this astronaut get up from the surface of the moon without using his legs? Wires maybe?
The most glorious achievement of the Hadron Collider is the discovery of the so-called Higgs God particle. But there are plenty of easily accessible articles on the Internet that question the discovery.
The amount of propaganda distributed about the Higgs is overwhelming. Let's start with an almost amusing example. Michio Kaku, a famous string popularizer, said in an interview on CBS news that the Higgs particle was the "missing piece of creation" and it "put the bang in the big bang." … This is considered to be blatant nonsense even by particle physicists. Matt Strassler, a member of the CMS collaboration, complained about Kaku's "spectacular distortions" and wrote in his blog, "worse, Kaku presumably knew it was wrong."
