Comments by "" (@jmitterii2) on "What happened to antimatter? - Rolf Landua" video.
+Eric Hyland That's a combination for tyranny you tyrant! Keep'em dumb, keep'em stupid, keep'em working, keep'em religious. LOL! Should be on our currency in the good ol' U S of A!

+Ildebrando Aldobrandeschi All mass has energy... Mass and energy are aspects of the same thing. Energy = Mass times the speed of light squared. Same with antimatter... it has mass the same type of mass. Anti matter just means their particles and atoms have opposite charge. our negatively charged Electron is a positively charged electron as antimatter. Our positively charged proton is a negatively charged proton as antimatter. All mass has energy. It's why nuclear fission and fusion work even with our matter. It's just that since electron and an anti-electron have opposite charge, when they come together, they attract in a violent manner releasing the other forces that bind them into point particles, releasing lots of EM photons and other forces particles: pure energy 100% efficient. Same with a proton and anti-proton, they attract positive and negative, and smash through what binds them into their individual stable states into a mess of pure boson particles (energy) completely leaving no mass left, just energy.

Based on evidence so far, anti-matter particles and larger anti-matter atomic elements seem to have a decay pattern making them weaker than our normal matter. So most of them decayed before and after the major annihilation event. What I'm sure they will find is that anti-matter isn't perfectly symmetrical in all of their properties. The interesting part hopefully they'll find is how that is.
