This is huge news. The Higgs boson, otherwise known as the God particle, has probably been found. Experiments at CERN have determined that there is a 99.9% chance that they have found the particle. They are not calling it definite because the accuracy has to be within one part in a million to pass that milestone. However, we can be pretty certain that proof of the Higgs has been shown, and that it will become official within a few months, after further experiments confirm it's existence within the rigorous margin of error that is called for.
