To my surprise
I remember it was quite a surprise to me when, my freshman year here I heard we was a real nuclear reactor on campus. A few days ago I learned about another amazing thing that PSU has on campus. Antimatter, the mirror image of matter resides on this very campus. Although its only a few nanograms, If it were to come into contact with any matter, it would level the building that holds it. Apparently it is held in a high power magnetic field that suspends it . From what I hear, the reaction between matter and antimatter gives of pure energy waaaay more efficiently than a nuclear explosion. Thats the rumor that I heard. From what i understand we are trying to develop a way to use antimatter in interstellar travel. Sounds fun This makes me wonder… Is there an AntiJames out there somewhere? If so are we destined to explode each other? Crazy!
