JCC Go science?

His equation goes like this. I've put the units in bold so as to minimize confusion.

Mass of higgs = square root of [(planck's constant * speed of light)/Gravitational constant] times 1/137 to the eighth power times pi.

M(H) = sqrt[((6.626e-34 (m^2 kg)/s)(3e8 m/s))/(6.67e-11 m^3/(kg s^2))] * (1/137) * pi = 1.38e-24 kg

Which is approx 775 GeV.

The Higgs Boson is 126 GeV.

Oh, let me take a moment to say just how much I hate typing out equations on a messageboard. Especially when units are involved. If there's an out of place parentheses, deal with it.

 

Yes, (1/137) should be (1/137)^8.

Did I mention how much I hate writing out equations on a messageboard?

 

Clearly we need a LaTeX add-on.

I've been telling you guys for years that the science behind the Force was sound. Now we've finally found it. Maybe you'll finally listen to my ideas on the warp drive and planetary colonization?

 

In actual news, apparently CERN's servers can't take that sort of traffic.

 

great article. Long have I suspected that physicists were using jedi mind tricks to get funding for their particle accelerators.

 

It works great on tenure committees.

Apparently we are perhaps a decade away from finding alien life. Granted we're talking pond scum as opposed to Spock, but still.....

 

Maybe it's really intelligent pond scum?

 

Well, he thinks that. That doesn't actually mean we are only a decade away.

Yes, I know this horse has been flogged to death, but it's not my fault it's on the news.

"Despite the fevered reports rocketing around the Internet recently, NASA is not on the verge of developing a fuel-free, faster-than-light propulsion system, space agency officials stress."

Reminds me of this quote by Dr. Ricard Daystrom from the Star Trek TOS episode "The Ultimate Computer":

Maybe humans want to experience space?
