Scientists at CERN have confirmed the existence of the Higgs Boson, the elusive particle believed to be responsible for giving mass and shape to all objects in the universe. The announcement comes after studying the data from last year's potentially earth-destroying tests using the Large Hadron Collider. Plus it's Pi Day, whee! "To me it is clear that we are dealing with a...

Its significance, though, awaits further investigation. The Higgs Boson really, really is the Higgs Boson. At first, testing at the Large Hadron Collider revealed a particle that was likely the Higgs Boson, the theorized particle that gives the universe its mass. Then, more tests confirmed we were even more sure about it--there was a one-in-550 million chance it wasn't the...
