RE: A posthumous memo by Stephen Hawking: towards a super collider in China (or at CERN?)

in #steemstem6 years ago

The next collider experiment to be done in China?? Never knew.

We don't know too, at least for now. But this is one of the options.

Well, maybe that's because this is not too deep.

Lol! If lying a the frontier of knowledge and technology is not too deep, I don't know what you need. But I agree this post is probably lighter than my usual ones :D

But if I may ask, why does the collider have to be built in China?? You think Hawking had a reason for choosing China??

The fact that there is an option in China has nothing to do with Hawking. The Chinese community proposed itself and Hawking liked the ideas, like many of us. However, in terms of science, the location does not really matter. The location is instead strongly correlated with politics, economical reasons, cultural reasons, etc.

This is exactly what I mean. It's lighter than the usual.

I will take a revenge with the next one, don't worry ^^
