Scott To Capt. Kirk

Aye captain we have a anti-matter imbalance……..the engines can’t take much more!  Remember those words from just about every Star Trek episode?

As you may already know, I try to find something other than politics to post on Sundays….sometimes it has been something sexual or scientific….so without further ado……

For decades we have been trying to make and capture anti-matter particles called positrons….first in Switzerland and then in West Virginia…..both places have massive colliders , I think that they are called “cyclotronic” or something similar…..anyway all that cash spent to build these things and there may have been a simpler answer all along…….

Is it possible that we may have spent all the money for nothing?
