Scientists Discovered Something Kinda Alarming: The Universe Shouldn't Actually Exist
@corlin @MookyTroubadour
You ever notice that every few generations science goes back to there being "ether"?
@corlin of course, but it’s a dandy of a headline.
@MookyTroubadour
Nope.
Bad Science journalism.
This statement is WRONG !
"The universe is permeated by a field known as the Higgs field, which gives everything its mass."
Yes we have known for decades, get the so-called vacuum energy is what we call metastable.
This is NOT new, nor particularly scary, nor anything to worry about. This is NOT a discovery. It is just a feature of how the universe works.
