"Scientists have found an extra charming new subatomic particle that they hope will help further explain a key force that binds matter together."

This is an interesting discovery and will hopefully lead to a better understanding of how matter that creates more drag on a ship that is traveling through space can have its mass reduced to allow the ship to travel faster while using less fuel.
 
Inertia-less drive by manipulating the Higgs field? You really don't want that - the atoms in your body would disintegrate and all the electrons and nucleons would head off independently at near the speed of light.
