Two plaintiffs, Walter Wagner and Luis Sancho, filed a doomsday machine lawsuit against CERN in an attempt to stop the Large Hadron Collider from operating. The lawsuit was dismissed on September 28, 2008. The judge ruled that the court had no jurisdiction over the LHC because it was run by CERN and operated in Geneva, Switzerland. Judge Helen Gilmor did not comment on the claims alleged in the lawsuit.1 2 The scientific consensus of physicists and other scientists is that the machine is safe and does not pose a threat to the world or the universe, as the plaintiffs had claimed.3
