The Higgs boson validates the Standard Model

The Higgs boson, discovered in 2012, is thought to be directly correlated to the strength of gravity. The more mass in the Higgs boson, the stronger gravity would be for all matter in the universe. … That extremely light Higgs boson is the one the LHC discovered in 2012.  The Higgs boson does not technically give other particles mass. More precisely, the particle is a quantized manifestation of a field (the Higgs field) that generates mass through its interaction with other particles.  The answer goes back to previous work in quantum field theory.
