There's a science fiction book, Einstein's Bridge, which (MINOR SPOILER) occurs in a universe where the SSC was built. (MAJOR SPOILER) The SSC allows an intelligence from another universe to invade and destroy Earth. But at the same moment, two scientists are able to travel back in time, where they use their knowledge of the future to interfere in politics and prevent the SSC from being built. That's our timeline. While it's obviously fiction, there's a corner of my brain that almost wishes it was true, because the reality (it was just political posturing) is so much more depressing to me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein%27s_Bridge_%28novel%29 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein%27s_Bridge_%28novel%2...
