PHYSICISTS IN JAPAN PLAN TO CREATE NEW UNIVERSE IN LAB

A radical new project could permit human beings to create a "baby universe" in a laboratory in Japan. While it sounds like a dangerous undertaking, the physicists involved believe that if the project is successful, the space-time around a tiny point within our universe will be distorted in such a way that it will begin to form a new superfluid space, and eventually break off, separate in all respects from our experience of space and time, causing no harm to the fabric of our universe.

"Causing no harm to the fabric of our universe." Trust us--we're scientists. Actually, this is cooler than human-animal hybrids.

This story reminds me of concerns that experiments using the Brookhaven National Laboratory's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider might inadvertantly destroy the universe.
