Matthew writes: The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider has disappeared suddenly this Saturday evening leaving an oddly smooth bowl shaped crater with a bizarre dust mound near the center of the crater.

While the exact cause of the sudden disappearance is unkown, speculation centers around the work of Dr. Horatiu Nastase, who was working on increasing the size and duration of suspected sub-atomic black holes that he had been producing. Because it was the weekend, only Dr. Nastase and two collaborating scientists are believed to have been inside the building.

Because there appears to be no remaining reckage or debris from the incident, authorities have ruled out a conventional explosion.
