Big Bang scientists map cautious plan for 2011 | Reuters: "(Reuters) - Scientists at the CERN research center seeking answers to key mysteries of the cosmos said on Wednesday they would be moving ahead cautiously this year to avoid any possible breakdown in their giant LHC machine.

But they indicated that in 2012, if all goes well, they would step up the energy of particle collisions that most feel is vital to bring them near to finding the almost mythical Higgs boson and evidence for the existence of dark matter.

'We are pushing the limits,' physicist Marco Zanetti told a seminar for CERN staff attended by Reuters."
