A Nine-Billion-Dollar Question About Reality
On July 4, 2012, physicists gathered at CERN erupted in celebration. They had found it-the Higgs boson, the final missing piece of the Standard Model of particle physics. This discovery cost nine billion dollars, required the largest machine ever built, and involved thousands of scientists working across decades. But here's the uncomfortable truth: this particle exists for less than a trillionth of a trillionth of a second and will likely never have practical applications. So why did we bother? The answer reveals something profound about what it means to be human. We built the Large Hadron Collider not because it would cure diseases or power our cities, but because we needed to know. We needed to understand why some particles have mass while others don't, why atoms hold together, why the universe looks the way it does. This is curiosity in its purest form-the drive to comprehend reality at its most fundamental level, regardless of utility.
