Quite a discovery if further research proves it to be. I am glad these scientists are researching intensely the field of quantum particles, we are getting closer to a standard set of laws...or possibly nothing at all.

yeah, physicists were getting too cocky

lol



EDIT:
so if it proves correct that the proton is smaller than originally thought, then what would be the consequences?
how would it impact the theories about particle physics? how would it change we look at the universe? and how would it (eventually) impact most people's lives?

i cant help but wonder about this...
