sorry i am late soccer ran long and my car pool had some more important errands...

we watched a movie but first jimbo talked about the cat in the box, colby got into trouble for being colby, and Dr. B. rejected me for prayer....again. Movie started at 12:30 and it was 72 degrees.

movie starts showing Fermilab, site of the once largest particle accelerator in the world. Physicists on the hunt for an amazing new particle, Higs Photon. (Lab also home to airplane club, tango club, and a rock band.)

Founder of the lab is Leon Ledermen, who explains how after the war science seemed to explode into a mass of discoveries. he says the immigration + science= american success

fermilab was stationed in texas and in 1977 they discovered the first of three quarks. the second twenty years later. (called a lab on the prarie because its surrounded by bison.) Quarks are connected by Gluon.

Accelerator works by first taking the electron out of say a hydrogen atom, leaving the proton; the proton is then shocked, making it speed up, while maintaining control via massive magnets. speed increases until BAM, SMASH, KABOOM, instant entertainment and occasionally some new information.

Higgs photon is so important because it is believed to be the cause of mass in all particles. mass is what defines our universe. can explain how our universe began.

expected discovery time=ten years from 2004.

sadly that wont happen because in 2006 the united states government made a budget cut canceling the program.

have a good night yall ill be in touch.
