		<description><![CDATA[A wonderful song on the 1975 Queen album Night at the Opera is &#8217;39. This lovely jig has a context deeply rooted in physics. It was written by Dr. Brian May, guitarist for Queen (&#8220;Another One Bites the Dust&#8221;, &#8220;We Are The Champions&#8221;, etc. etc. etc.), who finished his Ph.D. in astrophysics at Imperial College, [...]]]></description>

The piece aired June 28, 2000, long before Steve was a Superstar. While watching the piece, keep in mind the madcap doomsday discussion from my last post [...]]]></description>

This is a diagnostic step before performing actual collisions at full energy in the coming weeks and months. With a circumference of 17 miles, the LHC [...]]]></description>

Like physics &#8220;needs&#8221; to be elevated from its lowly status as an all-encompassing theoretical and experimental framework describing all physical phenomenon to the &#8220;art&#8221; of sports equipment. And if indeed there was some subjective human aesthetic missing in that lowly omni-descriptional status of [...]]]></description>
