The Universe will end mired in debt.

The Higgs boson is a hypothetical particle...

Translation: they made it up, so they can conficate some of our money to study it. Kind'a like human-caused global warming.

[FatherofFive]

The Higgs boson is a hypothetical particle whose accompanying field is believed to be accountable for giving all other fundamental particles their mass. ..

Sort of sounds like God... except the hypothetical part.

“Why are a majority of academically smart people, worldwide, so profoundly dumb, whenever it comes to their own political ideology choices (left to far left)?” This should be one of the questions, IMHO.

"The mysteries of the universe are as vast and wide as existence itself. Throughout history, mankind has searched and struggled to find the answers tucked away inside the universe and everything we see around us. .."

Why don't they just open their Bibles.

6. Why are cats made of strange sub-atomic particles that observe an unusual twist on Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle: Regardless of which side of the door a cat is on, he always wants to be on the other side.

BTW I believe “The Universe” is on tonight on H2 at 10 pm eastern.

There was no big bang, there will be no big crunch. This removes the need for magical pixie dust like “dark matter”.

Cosmic Mystery #6: WOMEN.

[Wingy]

No mention of the greatest mystery of all. The location of that mating sock in the dryer. That may be too tough to contemplate solving without newer, more advanced technology.

6. The Thermos.

[FastCoyote]

Five more physics questions:
1. The size of Moochele’s rear end.
2. How many Trillions we are actually in debt
3. How the Kardashians levitate their ‘careers’
4. The number of lies Mitt can tell in one ad
5. Whether Nancy Pelosi’s face is actually stretched tighter than a drum

Wonder why the double slit experiment didn’t make the list...

Admit it — if you've ever watched Han Solo and Chewie take the Millennium Falcon to light speed, or stared in awe the first time you saw the Starship Enterprise jump to maximum warp, you've wanted to see faster-than-light (FTL) travel. ..

That's nothing next to Ludicrous Speed.

Here's my favorite puzzle:

A black hole is something so dense and massive that nothing can get out of it. No matter and no information can pass outward through its event horizon.

The big bang theory posits that at the instant of its beginning, the universe expanded from an infinitely-dense point. This starting point was more massive and dense than any black hole. Yet, here we are.
