"Physicists have mass produced antimatter, a crucial first step towards precision studies of its properties that may help solve one of the greatest mysteries of the Universe. Antihydrogen has been made before, but only a handful of atoms at a time. Now, the Cern particle accelerator in Geneva, Switzerland, has produced more than 50,000" http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2266503.stm http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/generalscience/anti_hydrogen_020918.html There seems to be some internal grublings over at CERN as to wether they acctually have produced anti-hydrogen, so don't start building matter / antimatter reactor based PSU's just yet... Besides - there may be a problem sourcing the Dilithium crystals....
Hey Goo, isn't it dangerous to post a picture of antimatter?, what happens of someone posts a picture of some matter on the same thread?
It may be naive but anti-matter scares the **** outta me. I don't think that we are responsible enough as humankind to meddle with it. I have a sinking feeling that the last audible sound to be heard from the earth before it blinks out of existence is going to be "has anyone checked the containment field?" *boink* - now some of the outer planets have a better view of the sun... but until then..... on the lighter side.. spam will have been delt with...
