New dispatch from the real MiniBooNE!
****************************
To understand the universe, science calls on the ultrasmall
(Nanowerk News) Will the universe expand outward for all of eternity and end in a vast, dark, cold, sterile, diffuse nothingness? Or will the “Big Bang” — the gargantuan explosion that formed the universe 14 billion years ago — end in the “Big Crunch?” Planets, stars and galaxies all hurtle inward and collapse into an incredibly hot, dense mass a billion times smaller than the period at the end of this sentence. And then … KA-BOOOOM!!! Another Big Bang and another universe forms and hurtles outward, eventually leading to new iterations of the Sun, the Earth, and you?
A special three-day symposium focusing on the weird subatomic particles that could help answer those compelling questions begins in Washington, D.C. today through August 18 at the 238th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS).
Titled “The Chemistry and Physics of Neutrino Experiments,” it will include almost two dozen reports on experiments to understand what Nobel Laureate Frederick Reines once termed “the most tiny quantity of reality ever imagined by a human being.”
Many of the ACS presentations focus on experiments to investigate these particles. Scientists are turning to huge devices — the MiniBooNE detector (my bold - ed.), the Super Kamiokande, the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory, the Borexino solar neutrino detector and the IceCube detector (mmm...sounds like Metroid weapons - ed.)— that detect neutrinos using large volumes of liquids, like mineral oil, water or even the ice cap at the South Pole. (so, do aliens exist? - ed.)"

New dispatch from the band MiniBoone!
Come see our show on
Thurs. Aug. 20th @ Cameo Gallery in Brooklyn, NY
w/ Dinosaur Feathers, Shark? and others
Miniboone on second. So like @ 9:30?
Cover: $7. 93 N. 6th St., Brooklyn, NY
Dinosaur Feathers' EP Release Party! Congrats!!

Will either MiniBoone help us understand why we are all doomed?
