Antimatter
Darn those scientists and there shortage of antimatter pictures well ok as you have probably of guessed I have read on antimatter and... it's... AWESOME!!!!! Now for other people Antimatter is the matter that's the opposite of matter. Antimatter is the opposite of matter for example antimatter electrons are positrons and antimatter protons and neutrons are anti-protons and anti-neutrons which are different because like a neutron it has no electric charge but unlike it, it is composed of anti quarks rather then quarks.Antimatter is untouchable though literally when antimatter comes in contact with matter it explodes. The first discovery of antimatter was in 1928... sorta I mean a scientist suggested the possibility of such matter but it wasn't detected until 1932 when a scientist by the name of Carl Anderson who had indeed discovered an positron. More discoveries were later made such as the discovery of anti-protons and anti-neutrons in 1955 if I'm correct and the making of a anti-deuteron atom in 1965 and the making of a anti-hydrogen atom in 1995.
