Once upon a time, there was a Big Bang that created the entire universe as we know it, starting from tiny subatomic particles wich then formed atoms wich then formed molecules wich then formed cells wich then formed humans who now will try to reproduce the Big Bang with the Large Hadron Collider.
The Large Hadron Collider is a huge machine that uses giant magnets to accelerate subatomic particles like protons to speeds close to the speed of light giving them a lot of energy. The LHC can then make two particles collide so hard that they shatter, creating the same subatomic particles wich were formed during the Big Bang.
The accelerator will help us understand more about many physical problems, predictions and mysteries such as forces, particles, possible extra dimensions and even black holes. And although these black holes might seem interesting to learn about, they are a major concern for many people who fear a doomsday scenario where a black hole formed by the LHC will absorb the entire planet or even the entire universe.
In the end, we will have to decide whether the LHC is a blessing for our knowledge or a curse for our existence.

Clear single focus. I much liked the concept of the 1st sentence, but mind the spelling of 'which'. Good flow. ODP
