## Resource

Have you ever wondered why things have mass? Join Tanvi as she tackles the fascinating world of the Higgs Boson! This episode dives deep into the concept of the Higgs field, a metaphorical molasses pool that particles wade through, and the Higgs Boson, the particle linked to this field. We'll explore how the Higgs Boson grants mass to other particles, why it's nicknamed the "God Particle," and the hilarious story behind the name. Get ready for a journey into the subatomic world where light zooms freely and the Higgs Boson plays a key role in the universe's grand scheme!
