Although our universe is mostly normal matter, antimatter isn’t so hard to create — supernovae, black holes, and even bananas can make it.

A new field analysis explains what we need in order to progress with antimatter propulsion. While an antimatter engine is very far off, researching it could yield other discoveries as well.

Antimatter can produce more energy than anything else we know of, but it’s very fickle. A new field analysis explains what we need in order to progress with antimatter propulsion. While an ...

Science Space cern space travel Antimatter rockets could make interstellar travel a reality with 300x more powerful propulsion The numbers check out but more research is needed -- much more By Zo ...

Getting places in space quickly has been the goal of propulsion research for a long time. Rockets, our most common means of doing so, are great for providing lots of force but extraordinarily ...

Two new studies highlight the enigmatic nature of antimatter, revealing its potential role in both understanding the universe's origins and unlocking the secrets of particle physics.

A new discovery could finally shed light on a persistent cosmological mystery. The heaviest antimatter nucleus ever detected has been observed: antihyperhydrogen-4. Consisting of an antiproton, two ...

Antimatter isn't just a sci-fi trope. Ryan Weed has been working on designing an antimatter propulsion system for years.

Positronium has the potential to revolutionise physics but the elusive substance had been too hot to handle.

It's extremely rare and usually exists for just 142 billionths of a second. Positronium can generate huge amounts of energy. It can shed light on 'antimatter' which existed at the beginning of the ...
