If you expected to know just how we all came into being, and what happened immediately after the big bang, then you are just going to have to wait a little longer. The most expensive experiment in the world, the LHC costing a staggering $6.6 billion, that aims to reveal what happened immediately after the big bang has suffered a serious fault. One tonne of liquid helium flooded the experiment after developing a fault in a unit designed to super cool the particle accelerators magnets. The set back will mean a repair time of about two months and add a significant amount to the already costly experiment. So, for all those that had expected to witness the end of the world in the event that the experiment created a black hole, you can get on with your normal lives, at least for the next tow months!
