Higgs Boson Particle Found
 
For anyone that's interested:

"The results are preliminary but the 5 sigma signal at around 125 GeV we’re seeing is dramatic. This is indeed a new particle. We know it must be a boson and it’s the heaviest boson ever found,” said CMS experiment spokesperson Joe Incandela. “The implications are very significant and it is precisely for this reason that we must be extremely diligent in all of our studies and cross-checks."

This is truly very exciting if it is indeed a boson particle!!

Could someone explain the importance and potential applications of this discovery to us momgoloids please

Absolutely nothing. This is simply evidence supporting most of the major theories of physics. They hypothesized this particle as being necessary to the way they think the universe works, and then set about to find it to "prove" the hypothesis. So they built a large gizmo to find it, and lo and behold it's there. That's all.

I mean, having the technology to observe it will undoubtedly lead to more discoveries, but in and of itself, this changes nothing.

It would be pretty naive (and stupid) to say one of the biggest scientific findings in our life time "changes nothing"

All praise be to white Jesus

Doors, actually a physicist by the name of Amit Goswami has already claimed to have proved God exists through Quantum Physics:

His documentary was interesting.

Observation is the first step of progress. learn how it works and you can work your way into manipulation. This changes everything
