Now we’ll take you deep inside the strange world of antimatter-powered spaceships. Believe it or not, there’s actually an entire lab devoted to antimatter space propulsion at Penn State (the ...

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 ...

Antimatter-based propulsion offers a unique opportunity for missions to other star systems because it allows spacecraft to travel much faster than traditional chemical rockets.

An antimatter engine could theoretically accelerate a spacecraft at 1g (9.8 meters per second squared) getting us to Proxima in just five years, Weed said in 2016.

Researchers Sawsan Ammar Omira and Abdel Hamid Mourad from the United Arab Emirates University argue that antimatter holds promise as the ultimate energy source for deep space propulsion. If ...

Consider it good news, physicists say: “The opposite result would have had big implications.” By Dennis Overbye Antimatter just lost a little more pizazz. Physicists know that for every ...

Astronomers are finding new exoplanets almost every day, but due to the incredible distances between star systems, space exploration has been limited to our solar system. For example, it is ...
