Antimatter Hypothesis: Evidence

After the antimatter hypothesis is confirmed, the top priority appears obvious. The primary goal is to contain large samples of high density antimatter within a vacuum. To accomplish this aim, a survey of extraterrestrial antimatter candidates needs to be conducted, while proceeding along two separate fronts: small objects in near Earth orbit, and large objects anywhere in the solar system.

Near Earth orbit antimatter interacts with the solar wind and Earth’s atmosphere producing direct gamma ray emissions through annihilations, and indirect electromagnetic radiation through reflection, ionization, and Compton scattering. Detectors attuned to various wavelengths need to be deployed to Earth orbit to record the phenomenon, and plans need to be devised to capture antimatter specimens.

Large body antimatter located in our solar system needs to be detected through anomalous gravitational behavior. Antimatter may reside within the asteroid belt, pushed out by the inner solar system, and pushed in by Jupiter; at Trojan points or planetary rings. The rings of Saturn might contain antimatter. Detailed telemetry needs to be conducted and analyzed to detect antigravity anomalies between gravitationally interacting bodies. Recall that like gravitational forces attract, but opposite gravitational forces repel. Once antimatter has been located, the next step is to corral the substance for experimentation with the ultimate goal of manufacturing transportation vehicles.

In addition, meteor impacts produce different crater signatures depending upon whether the meteor was matter or antimatter. New simulations must distinguish between the two, and craters throughout the solar system reclassified and studied in finer detail.

NASA has promoted humans in space to secure funding for space exploration. That paradigm now takes second stage. Robotic spacecraft designed to exploit the economic benefits of antimatter are far more cost effective and lucrative, with a huge backlog of pressing problems here on Earth awaiting the application of antigravity technology.
