CERN’s particle accelerator July 5 event didn’t create a cosmic black hole. The machine also can’t shift time and space, like viral conspiracy theories claim.

Researchers at CERN are firing up the Large Hadron Collider for the third time, hoping to discover dark matter.

CERN, Accelerator Report: Exploring performance potential for future benefit, Nov. 9, 2023. CERN, CERN’s accelerators gear up for action after the winter maintenance break, Feb. 22, 2024.

Each year after a brief winter technical stop, CERN restarts its accelerator complex and the collider, Tesauri said. This year it was restarted on March 8 – a full month before the eclipse.
