...WELL. I wish I would've saw this thread before... Because I totally just gave a speech about the God Particle in my Physics class. .__. But I still got a 100 on it. But the Higgs is pretty interesting. One scientist studying the Higgs says this about it: "The Higgs boson is interesting because it is the only reasonable explanation we have for the origin of mass. Without the Higgs, all fundamental particles would be massless, and the universe would be very different. The weak nuclear forces wouldn't be weak at all, for instance, so the elemental composition of the cosmos would be radically different, stars would shine differently, and we probably wouldn't exist."
If someone already said that, sorry. D: I didn't read all the posts. But the possibility of a Black Hole is kind of frightening. And if the Higgs was actually found, it could rock the foundation of Physics and bring forth a new set of laws. But as it's name suggests, "God" Particle, it might not even be there.
And there is this one article about a philosopher talking about how in the future a black hole would be caused because of something like this. Lesse if I can find it. . .
Ah, found it. [url="http://newskf.com/nostradamus-end-of-the-world-will-be-in-2016/12482/"]Nostradamus predicts the end of the world in 2016[/url].
Okay, really... First 2012 (from what I remember) and now 2016. The world is [i]not[/i] going to end, people. At least not for awhile.
