CERN does it again, in September they claimed they broke the speed of light, now they are claiming the Higgs boson or "God Particle" does exists. It's a particle that would have only existed moments after the big bang. If you remember people spooking about the LHC and possibly creating black holes, this is the result of that experiment. We're living in an interesting time people. Science is building a Tower of Babel and we're getting closer to the origin. This is making want to change my major to physics even more.

This shit is amazing, but scary as hell too. The things our scientists are doing are quite frightening when you think that they have absolutely no idea what they are doing or what the results might be.
It might be...but it also might be the start of a new Planet of the Apes or a 28 Days Later situation...because they don't know. That being said, I'm all for scientific research...I just wish they'd do the scary dangerous stuff on the moon.
Thanks for posting the articles, very interesting stuff. One clarification though, the particles theoretically exist all around us right now, not exclusively during the big bang.
Am I the only one who has been following the god particle for years now? lol. I feel like an old school tripper
