I was always told that's not how antimatter works. Antimatter is like matter, except traveling backward through time instead of forward like matter.
And you're saying now they can just shove it in a scuba tank and have some third worlder drive it around?
yep. i remember that some extremely small amount would automatically seek out the closest matter and combine in a mushroom cloud of instant annihilation! supposedly only extremely energy intensive and actively confined magnetic fields could hold the stuff in suspension in near perfect vaccum... Wow anti-matter is cool again!
