>discover higg's boson
>discover how and why matter have mass
>eventually learn to controll mass

Consider the applications for this
>massive spaceshit having little mass,making space travelling even more easy
>create new fuels, new types of energy
>anti gravity

So, what are the possible >implications for this discovery?

Would it be possible to create a reduced mass bubble where things inside have normal mass in relation to one another but the entire encapsulated area has less mass than the sum of its internal masses?

Or is the best we can do lower the mass in a certain area?

Would this kill someone somehow, or would the body continue functioning normally as long as everything had the same relative mass?

>eventually learn to controll [sic] mass

We already know how to control mass, it's called a force

None of what you're saying or suggesting makes any sense or relates to the Higgs field in any way. We've had a theoretical basis for why fundamental particles have the masses they do for nearly 50 years. The discovery of the Higgs boson merely confirms this model.

a... mass effect field?

yes I love how whenever we make a new discovery into how the world works, laymen think this somehow usurps conventional physics and we will able to change the way the universe worked all the way up until then.

If any of what you're saying made even the slightest bit of sense, you would have heard Kaku talking about it by now.
