such as
0.00000000047 grams = total mass of protons circulating in the LHC
at any time.
362 megajoules = collective energy of LHC's protons at top speed.
low mass & big joules, lets you appreciate how fast they're going.
The catch is how that energy will interact with other particles. And how those
particles will interact with other matter..
Such large energies at such small scales breaks some barriers.
It's intentional ofcourse. But the effects can be a suprise ;)
