Title: Storms produce antimatter?
Post by: Solatar on January 11, 2011, 08:49:33 pm

Seemed like something that'd be in the general interest of this forum.  Really interesting, but I'm not knowledgeable enough in the field to think of any implications.

There aren't really many implications, but it's cool.

Potassium plays a necessary role in our biology, so yes, even you produce positrons every once in a while.

Now I just need to learn how to save them so I can shoot antimatter beams.

Hopefully from your eyeballs.  Otherwise I don't see a point.

With battuta's post removed my post is no longer in context nor relevant.

As my vengeance I will instead say:

"Of course bananas produce antimatter, they are after all cast by the hand of God"
