=COULD THE WORLD BE ENDING WITH THIS NEW SCIENCE INVENTION?! = //Charlotte W.//

=**Introduction**=

My project is on the Large Hadron Collider, and how technology has advanced to the point that they are trying to recreate the "Big Bang" theory which was created at the start of the Earth.

Scientists fear that the Large Hadron Collider will destroy the world by creating a giant black hole that sucks everyone and everything into it. European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) have built the largest science invention in the world. This invention is the highest energy, particle accelerator and it lies under the Franco-Swiss border. The purpose of this amazing invention is to higgs boson, also given the name "the God Particle", which is the only elementary particle that has never been observed by scientists. This particle could help them to find out how such properties came to be like "mass." They are trying to recreate the "Big Bang" theory which was there at the start of the Universe.

=**Characters**=

Character 1: Kristina T. - Short interview about the Large Hadron Collider, she wont know what it is and flip out!. Character 2: Hannah K. - Short interview about the Large Hadron Collider, then Kristina will tell her about it and Hannah will flip out too. Character 3: Mr. D - Ask how he feels about the Large Hadron Collider.

Short Description of Scenes
Act I: Introduction/Background Description of the Large Hadron Collider will roll across the screen while music is playing. Act II: Sit Down With Kristina, tell her about the Hadron Collider and then ask her what she thinks about it, she will hear that it could end the world and run around going crazy and find Hannah walking into the quad. Kristina is totally clueless about it, gets scared about it hurting the world. Hannah comes in and starts talking about technology and how much its advancing. (In the quad) Act III: Interview with Mr.D - ask him what he thinks about the whole process and what the Hadron Collider does/ how its supposed to work. (Mr.D's Room)

Detailed Description of Scenes
(Chorus of Song: It Ends Tonight - The All American Rejects) All Text From "Introduction" and add about how much technology has advanced. Show pictures from things then and now. Show how things were and how they are. Show pictures of the Large Hadron Collider that they tried making about 10 years ago and show the one they have now, 10 years later after technology has advanced.
 * Act I:**

(Kristina walks into the quad and narrator, me, starts to explain to her about the Hadron Collider) Kristina: Yo, why is everyone so uptight today?? I mean whats goin' on, the world could end, thats totally a rumor right? Hannah: Well, i mean its not totally a rumor because the world "COULD" end but, here let me explain. Kristina: Hurry up, i dont got much time since the world is ending i want to go out with a BIG BANG, if i get sucked into the black holes. Hannah: Thats the perfect place to start, with the "Big Bang Theory." Kristina: What? What are you talking about? The Big Bang Theory, are you imitating me? Hannah: I mean I would love too, but no, the Big Bang theory is a theory that was created at the start of the Universe. Kristina: Just keep going with this "theory" (put attitude into it)... Hannah: The big bang theory is a theory that the universe started from a single point and kept expanding ever since. Kristina: WOW, really? ... Hannah: The reason they want to do this is because the large hadron collider is supposed to find a particle they call "the God Particle" during the time it is running. Kristina: (runs of crazily) Hannah: Whats going on? Kristina: They are set off some particle accelerator! Hannah: Whats that, what are all of these people doing these days? wow... technology is advancing faster that my hair grows..... i mean last time i checked we were searching for the best newest iPod or iPhone thing and now we are recreating the big bang theory, my goodness!
 * Act II:**

Acts 1 + 2 END

(show picture of the Collider)

MR D. INTERVIEW: Narrator: Mr.D, what do you think about the Large Hadron Collider? (He answers...) Narrator: Mr. D i think you are MAD because YOU didnt think of this thing first! (Answers...) Narrator: Do you think it can destroy the world? ... Possible?! (Answers...) Narrator: Why do you think that?! Act 3 ENDS.
 * Act III:**

(show more pictures of it then and now, when it was first built and when it was finished.)

ALL ACTS END
