      Yes! In fact, it’s possibly happening already at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN! The scientists aren’t sure – it may require a bit more power.

      But any that get made a micro-black holes, which almost immediately vanish and pose no danger. Very different from the giant ones you find in space!
