So, there's all sorts of weird hype about the LHC, that it's going to destroy the Earth with the weird science they're doing. It's just not so.

For the next 48 hours, they're working on some serious science nonstop. It sounds boring, thunking protons into each other at 99.9999% the speed of light, but it's really kinda cool stuff.

They've set up a couple webcams to show what's going on, so check it out:
