Time Machine of the Day:

Can a large atom smasher be the key to time travel? Well, that’s what some physicists are proposing.
From MSNBC:

“The scientists outline a way to use the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a 17-mile-long particle accelerator buried underground near Geneva, to send a hypothetical particle called the Higgs singlet to the past.
There are a lot of “ifs” to the conjecture, including the major question of whether or not the Higgs singlet even exists and could be created in the machine.
‘Our theory is a long shot, but it doesn’t violate any laws of physics or experimental constraints,’ physicist Tom Weiler of Vanderbilt University said in a statement.”

If their theory turns out to be true, scientist will be able to send messages into the past and future, but no Marty McFly’s, yet.
