Learning so much about Antimatter today....
The ultimate desktop toy...an antimatter factory!
Now we're living in the future Buckeroo Banzai promised!
Turns out it wouldn't be the end of the world if you had such a doomsday device, but more interestingly for non-supervillains you can kick start Fusion reactions with it.

Planning to heist some antimatter and get the hell off this planet......
.....by selling it on the Galactic Black Market in exchange for a starship.
LHC breaks the record for heaviest antimatter nucleus ever seen.
Researchers have found evidence of an exotic form of antimatter in the aftermath of colliding extremely fast lead ions.
Benjamin Dönigus at Goethe University Frankfurt and colleagues from the Large Hadron Collider at the Geneva CERN particle physics laboratory have created an unprecedentedly heavy antimatter nucleus: antihyperhelium-4.

While most of the nine experiments at the #LHC, each with its own detector, generate their results by slamming together protons at near the speed of light, the #ALICE collaboration creates quark-gluon plasma by slamming together much heavier particles, usually lead nuclei, or "ions."
What Could Go Wrong....with a truck full of Antimatter?

#Dirac was a strange man who today would probably be diagnosed as being on the #autism spectrum. Tall, gangly and reminiscent of a stick insect, his habit was to work hard all week and on Sundays take long walks in the countryside around Cambridge, where he would climb tall trees dressed in his suit and tie.

Frozen #positronium: Some even talk of it as a means of propelling spacecraft close to the speed of light, making interstellar travel feasible in the far future...

The work was carried out at #Cern's #antimatter factory, which has recently created and stored the largest amount of antimatter hydrogen atoms in the known universe.

Harvest Antimatter
Personally I think there should be a rule about bring that stuff down to Holy Terra, as in "Don't"

Groundbreaking results rule out the possibility of #antimatter being accelerated upwards in Earth's #gravity and bring researchers one step closer to unraveling one of the most high-profile problems in physics.
