Assalam aleikum,

Interesting read: http://news.independent.co.uk/world/science_medical/story.jsp?story=413755


"If all goes to plan, the Atlas instrument - five storeys high and weighing 7,000 tonnes - will lead the search for the holy grail of physics, an elusive subatomic phenomenon formally called the Higgs boson, but nicknamed the 'God particle'.
... If scientists do detect it, the discovery could answer one of the biggest questions in science; why do we, and all other matter in the Universe, exist? ...Finding the Higgs would enable scientists to explain why matter has mass. The theory is that the Universe is pervaded by an unseen and mysterious field (the Higgs field) and that atoms, and their subatomic particles, acquire their mass by interacting with this field."

Am I the only one fascinated by discoveries like this? Subhan'allah it re-inforces the belief that Allah has embedded signs in every field of life, if only we learn from them.
