I wasn't worried at all. Not at all. My fingernails just chewed themselves, in case anyone asks. The ignition of the Large Hadron Collider - which a lot of people believe can cause a black hole to appear and suck us all into a parallel dimension - has been delayed. You have one more month to enjoy life before the end of the world the launch. Story in the full article.

The Large Hadron Collider, the largest and most powerful particle accelerator, is scheduled to be up and running in the very near future. It's so powerful that it is feared to be able to create a black hole that can swallow the Earth, and then some. And that's just one of many other dangers it poses. So, when it becomes fully operational in the next few months... should we worry?

Supermassive black holes are so colossal that they are thought to be the center of most galaxies, including our own. Tearing through spacetime, these enormous entities pose a giant question: how do they feed? Scientists may have found a clue. Details in the full article.

We usually name things after their defining characteristics, such as color. There are exceptions, though. One such exception may be the so-called black hole, which Stephen Hawking theorized as not really being black at all. In fact, professors Ulf Leonhardt and Dr Germain Rousseaux used water to test Hawking's theory. Find out the specifics in the full article after the jump.

Let's face it, fun can be derived from blowing up things. Well, that's what the people from Sandblast Games think when working on Destroy All Humans! Path of the Furon. In their latest blog entry, the spilled the beans on how they were able to perfect the art of destruction. Read the details in the full article.

Muse fans will have something new to rock with, now that Activision's Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, PC) will have a new three-song pack filled with Muse tracks. If you're a fan of the British band, there's really no reason why you should miss out on this one. Hit the full article to check out the songs.

Have you ever wondered what goes on on the inside of a black hole? Wonder no more, as researchers at the National Science Foundation have an idea of the kind of action that takes place within this cosmic phenomenon. It can probably be summed up in one word: corkscrew. More cosmic fury escalates in the full article after the jump.

In just about every galaxy known to man, the most common feature in them is that they all have a monstrous centerpiece: a massive black hole. For some reason, Milky Way's own Sagittarius A* seems dormant, but Japanese observers say it wasn't always this way. The full story follows after the jump.

Though black holes are often characterized as humongous gravity sinks, scientists believe there's a minimum mass requirement for any black hole in existence. They've got the requirements down pat by way of theoretical prediction only, but two able researchers from NASA finally pinpointed the smallest black hole to date. It could help them judge whether their estimates are accurate enough. More details at the full story.

A star nine times the size of our own Sun has been observed speeding away from our Milky Way at 1.6 million miles per hour. While this may not be an unusual event in and of itself (stranger stuff have happened in the universe - game delays for instance), scientists have been puzzled by the star's origins since it didn't come from our own galaxy. Now they believe that the star came from another galaxy, catapulted away by a black hole 1,000 times the mass of the Sun. Details in the full article.
