Also, quantum physics is'nt that difficult to learn, especially if it's just the basics.
...I still have a god amount of knowledge on the subject.
Deep underground on the Franco-Swiss border, someone will throw a switch next year to start one of the most ambitious experiments in history, probing the secrets of the universe and possibly finding new dimensions.
The Large Hadron Collider - a 27km-long circular particle accelerator at the CERN experimental facility near Geneva, will smash protons into one another at unimaginable speeds trying to replicate in miniature the events of the Big Bang.

Well I wouldnt worry about it, when the built the first nuclear pile (a crude reactor) they were conscerned a runaway chain reaction might vaporize chicago but did it anyway.

GhostITM is correct, the chance of that even happening is
so remote that you probably have a better chance of a bi-latteral
temporal singularity opening in front of you. (Of course I have no
idea what the chances of that are.)

You see folks, this is exactly the reason why I am digging a hole in my basement to create a secret place I can go to when the proverbial sh*t hits the fan.

Didn't this happen in The Da Vinci Code?

I have never claimed to be a physicist or an expert on what the CERN laboratory is doing at any given moment so I feel it is pointless to argue about what they may be doing in the future or what "breakthroughs" they will or might have. My comments about the CERN lab are in reference to particle accelerators in general and other questions that have come up in the past. The major physics break through for controlled gravity distortion does happen at CERN in your future. Heck, we haven't even touched on "Z" field compression yet. I suppose I could say that I was the one that traveled in time and convinced them to change their experiments but even I would have a hard time believing that one and I do not wish to insult your intelligence.

I?m pretty sure they have a number of experiments going on at the same time at CERN. The one I?m referring to involves very high energies using protons. From my historical perspective on my worldline, I do recall the issue was a point of contention about 18 months ago or so. There were some scientists who thought the experiments were too dangerous to try. The time travel I refer to does not require faster than light travel and due to multiple world ?reality?, paradoxes do not occur. Natural time machines do exist.

Is it possible that a similar event could occur naturally in our universe meaning that new universes are being created all the time? Even if it isnt possible, could it occur in another universe where the laws of physics allow it?

I wasn't concerned until I read this.
I like how they are confident enough in what may happen to give odds on it. Isn't the purpose of this experiment to find out what will happen? If they know enough right now to calculate odds then why do they need to do the experiment? Things like this are why we need to get some people off of this rock we call "Earth" and on to self-sustaining colonies on other worlds. That way if some egg head is off by a few decimal places, some of the human race may survive.
