Claim summary · not a verbatim quotation
CERN can already make microscopic black holes that quickly disappear.
The finding
What the evidence shows
CERN discusses microscopic black holes as a prediction of speculative models, not a demonstrated product of the collider. The CMS Collaboration's 2026 search reports limits excluding parts of model parameter space rather than a detection. A predicted brief lifetime if such objects existed is different from observing them. The subsequent claim about sending consciousness through them also has no verified experimental support.
