But cern is firing particles at each other not photons.Nothing of size of a space dust is moving in LHC either.
They accelerate particles like proton.

So, if I have two objects moving at 0.8 speed of light collide head on, what speed is "impact"?
I'm no astronomer or strong in math. But two objects travelling at 0.8 of light speed and impacting is a much greater release of energy than a 0.8 sol hitting an almost stationary object.
