"Just a few days ago, scientists restarted investigations with the
Large Hadron Collider, after a two-year hiatus. Upgrades have made it
even more powerful, and physicists are eager to explore the properties
of the Higgs particle in greater detail. If the upgraded collider does
discover supersymmetric particles, it will be an astonishing triumph of
modern physics. But if nothing is found, our next steps may prove to be
difficult and controversial, challenging not just how we do science but
what it means to do science at all."
