Scientists pick up signals from the zeptoverse

Cambridge University scientists have picked up signals from the smallest scale of nature ever explored – 100 billion times smaller than an atom.

It's a world so small that some physicists have nicknamed it the zeptoverse.

The research was obtained from an experiment at Europe's Large Hadron Collider, and could help researchers develop a new, more complete theory of how the Universe works.

omg

what kind of dope are these people smoking?

or snorting?

or smashing?

...in order to shrink their tiny imaginary brains down to such a tiny little size for their itty bitty ears to imagine they heard something?

Please Dear Lord make the mental mastubation stop!

Fucking nano is bad enough, albeit real, now will we need to worry about some trump dude in a solar system a trillionth of the size of an amoeba detonating a nuclear device somewhere in the depths of King Tut's turned-to-dust sphincter?

And yet these geniuses will sound the alarm claiming to have heard it go off.

lol
gimme a break

So we have a guy here thinking he's cleverer than Cambridge physicists.

I literally am laughing out loud.

Come on, lad, probe them wrong right here.

Psssst. A signal does not automatically equate to the existence of a parallel universe or intelligent life. We pick up natural signals from space all the time. I mean shit dude, if we can create technology that allows us to see 14.5 billion years into the past then we can create technology that can detect signals in the "microverse".

The smallest length that we so far know of is the Planck length.

To know how a Planck length compares to an average atom: A Planck length is comparable to an atom as an atom is to the observable Universe.
