Action packed day with Discovery due to undock from the International Space Station at 6:42am CDT and the launch of the GLAST satellite at 8:45am CDT. Make sure to catch these events live at http://www.spacevidcast.com/live later today or watch the replays.

What is GLAST you ask? Good question, we take a look at that in this daily SpaceVidcast.

    You guys are making it harder and harder to do these without laughing. For anyone interested, I do stream them live on SpaceVidcast.com/live so you can watch the creation process… And in many cases laugh along with my silly mistakes.

    I see that the GLAST telescope has been launched today.

    How much time might be required before analysis of GLAST data might indicate proof or rejection of Hawking Radiation theory?

    This could be critical in determining the safety of the Large Hadron Collider, due to begin collisions later this year.

    Unlike what CERN tells the public, the Large Hadron Collider Safety Assessment Group (LSAG) writes that current safety arguments are not valid proof of safety. Micro black holes might be created by the Large Hadron Collider, they might not evaporate, they might grow quickly and we have not been damaged by cosmic rays because cosmic rays pass harmlessly through Earth. CERN also tells the public that a new safety report has been completed, but so far the final report has not been released for review by world’s scientists.

    The legal complaint before US Federal Court in Hawaii demands 4 months to review this safety report and a permanent injunction if safety can not be assured to within reasonable industry standards. First hearing is scheduled for June 16, 2008.
