BBC Horizon - Is Everything We Know About The Universe Wrong Xvi

There's something very odd going on in space - something that shouldn't be possible. It is as though vast swathes of the universe are being hoovered up by a vast and unseen celestial vacuum cleaner. Sasha Kaslinsky, the scientist who discovered the phenomenon, is understandably nervous: 'It left us quite unsettled and jittery' he says, 'because this is not something we planned to find'. The accidental discovery of what is ominously being called 'dark flow' not only has implications for the destinies of large numbers of galaxies - it also means that large numbers of scientists might have to find a new way of understanding the universe. Dark flow is the latest in a long line of phenomena that have threatened to rewrite the textbooks. Does it herald a new era of understanding, or does it simply mean that everything we know about the universe is wrong?

scary stuff.
if everything we know about the universe is wrong, as posed by this documentary, yet we're creating "God particles" at the LHC.. then.. how the fuck are we supposed to trust that they're not going to rip our asses a new hole in space-time?

@tofusoldier: Because anything the LHC does is something that has been happening in our atmosphere since before life crawled out of the sea. The universe is a natural super-collider; the LHC just lets us cause and see these events under controlled conditions.
Hopefully someone told you this already, and you haven't been unnecessarily panicking for the last few years.
