Fact is stranger then fiction, or so the saying goes...
With CERN firing up the Hadron Collider this year in March, the facility and the nuclear physics research in progress there have been brought to the forefront of many scientifically inquisitive people.
Many opinions, assumptions, thoughts, and occultic motivations have been outlined for all to take in and digest...
The LHC (Large Hadron Collider) had been shutdown to implement system upgrades after issues in 2008 caused it to fail. It was later turned back up at a reduced efficiency. This latest shutdown after the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, had been commenced to implement hardware upgrades which would allow increased loads on the system. Not being a nuclear physicist, I have no clue as to the procedure, processes or experiments, but you can investigate them for yourself at the CERN website or get a third party view of the LHC turn up from IEEE Spectrum.
Here is a brief synopsis from the IEEE Spectrum website, outlining the initial issues:
The LHC got off to an inauspicious start, and that bad beginning explains some upgrades. In September 2008 during a final commissioning phase, and before the accelerator reached its planned maximum energy of 14 teraelectron volts, one of the more than 10,000 interconnections for wires supplying power to the superconducting magnets of the LHC failed, causing an arc that melted through a helium line and damaged a several-hundred-meter stretch of the system. After a year of repairs, the LHC started up and eventually reached a reduced collision energy of 7 TeV.
What caught my attention was my wife's discovery of the statue of a Hindu god which is at the CERN facility.
A short explanation of how the statue came to CERN is below, an excerpt from a post at http://www.fritjofcapra.net/shivas-cosmic-dance-at-cern/
On June 18, 2004, an unusual new landmark was unveiled at CERN, the European Center for Research in Particle Physics in Geneva — a 2m tall statue of the Indian deity Shiva Nataraja, the Lord of Dance. The statue, symbolizing Shiva’s cosmic dance of creation and destruction, was given to CERN by the Indian government to celebrate the research center’s long association with India.The post above describes the god as "Shiva Nataraja, the Lord of Dance". When my wife investigated this name, she was awed in disbelief as she read the definition and characteristic of this Hindu deity:
The first question which comes to mind is why CERN would accept this gift from the Indian government, when it is identified with "The Destroyer", whose mission is tear the universe asunder and allow through its destruction, the re-creation of the universe?
Isn't the first created universe good enough?
It makes you wonder if all the Saturn watching, Illuminati stalking, conspiracy talking folks out there are really on to something. But, then again, you don't have to be one of these occultic watching types to feel moved to ask why?
Why are the scientists at CERN planning on pushing the limits, without regard to the potential consequences.
World renown Theoretical Physicist, Dr. Stephen Hawking has stated, in so many words, that the scientists at CERN are playing with fire, and we all could get burned!
Here is some information concerning research work completed by Dr. Hawking, from his website:
Stephen Hawking has worked on the basic laws which govern the universe. With Roger Penrose he showed that Einstein's General Theory of Relativity implied space and time would have a beginning in the Big Bang and an end in black holes. These results indicated that it was necessary to unify General Relativity with Quantum Theory, the other great Scientific development of the first half of the 20th Century. One consequence of such a unification that he discovered was that black holes should not be completely black, but rather should emit radiation and eventually evaporate and disappear. Another conjecture is that the universe has no edge or boundary in imaginary time. This would imply that the way the universe began was completely determined by the laws of science.
He has been very public with his opinion that the LHC experiments have the potential to "destroy the universe". Please reference the full article at http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2746727/Maybe-shouldn-t-looking-quite-hard-God-particle-destroy-universe-warns-Stephen-Hawking.html - an excerpt of which is below:
The elusive 'God particle' discovered by scientists in 2012 has the potential to destroy the universe, Professor Stephen Hawking has warned.
At very high energy levels, the Higgs boson could cause space and time suddenly collapse - and 'we wouldn't see it coming', the former Cambridge professor of mathematics says.
The God particle, which gives shape and size to everything that exists, could cause a 'catastrophic vacuum delay' if scientists were to put it under extreme stress.
Our focus here is very high level, and I mean THE MOST HIGH level.
Praise God, The Eternal Creator First and Last, that we need not worry for the destruction of the universe outside of His Perfect Will. All is to be within what He allows. His will be done.
The Creator of All looks upon us and proclaims, as was penned by Solomon in Ecclesiastes, "vanity of vanities, all is vanity":
Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher, vanity of vanities! All is vanity. What does man gain by all the toil at which he toils under the sun? A generation goes, and a generation comes, but the earth remains forever. The sun rises, and the sun goes down, and hastens to the place where it rises. The wind blows to the south and goes around to the north; around and around goes the wind, and on its circuits the wind returns. All streams run to the sea, but the sea is not full; to the place where the streams flow, there they flow again. All things are full of weariness; a man cannot utter it; the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing. What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. Is there a thing of which it is said, "See, this is new"? It has been already in the ages before us. There is no remembrance of former things, nor will there be any remembrance of later things yet to be among those who come after.The Eternal, Alpha and Omega looks upon us all, seeing natural mans quest for answers to questions concerning the origins of creation, the beginning of all things. His Word contains the answers to these and are plainly given to us, yet our eyes are blind, and our ears, plugged.
(Ecc 1:2-11 ESV)
When did the scientists of the world finally discover that the sun traverses the whole universe, tugging the Solar system with it?

Our sun (Sol), completes a circuit about the universe, from one end to the another and back...
Psalm 19, penned by King David and given by The Eternal, states the obvious Revelation of God as exhibited in His Creation. The LORD relays to us the mystery of the suns journey through the universe:
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard. Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun, which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber, and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy. Its rising is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the end of them, and there is nothing hidden from its heat.
(Psa 19:1-6 ESV)
