YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A fan wants to know whether there could be an anti-Higgs boson, and if there were, could a theoretical anti-Higgs generator reduce mass enough to allow faster than light travel? Neil deGrasse Tyson tells co-host Chuck Nice why it wouldn’t work that way even if it did exist, which it can’t because bosons are particles without anti-particles.
