Default Higgs Boson Particle "Discovered"

http://www.cbc.ca/m/touch/technology/story/1.1366039

The above attachment is just to show the particle has actually been found. My understanding about what's happening now is they are determining how many bosons there are or if there is just one boson. Does anyone have any input as to what this may mean for us as living beings in this planet? Possibly to how we exist here?

Default Re: Higgs Boson Particle "Discovered"

Isn't this fairly old news?

The main thing this implies is that our current model of subatomic particle is more likely to be correct, considering the Higgs boson was one that the model predicted, but for a long time could not be observed.

As far as I know, there's only one type of Higgs boson (and with that its anti-particle and its supersymmetric particle). Technically anything with an even amount of fermions is considered a boson, so there are loads of bosons you could think of.
