Currently we can produce a few picograms of antimatter for $20 million. It would take 100 billion years and $6 quadrillion dollars to produce 1 gram of antimatter (at current technology).
1kg of antimatter and 1kg of matter would produce around 47 megatons of TNT (186 petajoules) for example Tsar Bomba, the largest nuclear bomb ever detonated, released 57 megatons using hundreds of kg of uranium/plutonium.
Each year humanity consumes 500 EJ of energy.
So around 3 tons of antimatter would run the planet for a year as opposed to over 1 cubic mile of oil alone used each year.
Further LHC type projects will give use more efficient and cost effective ways of creating antimatter, that is why we need the LHC.

I found out who she is! Yay for me lol
Apparently I left some dumb comment on a journal entry about this chick. I guess that makes me evil, of course I better watch out before she wishes something bad on me to lmao

Yes "X" your an evil man AYW must be tainting you ways lol (( hheheh ))
lol X
i ge the same :)
*Sighs* Katherine's madness will never end. She's still the same psycho babbling idiot she has always been.
Borked - I have no intention of becoming friends with anyone who types like that or who acts in such a way as to be plastered all over VR journals. In this case yeah it was a "better to be a good line than a good friend."
Besides my comment was harmless enough, I didn't warrant being cursed at.
no i believe the problem is ayw , he has corrupted xzavier and turned an angel into a demon lol

From Lav --Thanks xzavier … thought you were a vicar but a scientist to boot.
Must be hard to find how stuff works thus pushing the god hand back each time.--
Yes I am both, well Pastor, I'm not Catholic and a scientist.
Only people with small minds think that science pushes God back and the same with those who think God pushes back science.
Science proves God and God proves science, there is no conflict.
I've shown this several times in both the forums and here in my journal.
It's unfortunate that people listen to what you say. All you use are your opinions and bits of fact that meets your own little world. Any time I learn that something I believe is wrong I accept it and adjust accordingly.
Everything I say, believe, think, know or have an opinion on has facts to back it up and not just the ones I "want."
Despite the speed of light being 300,000km/ps due to the turbulent nature of fusion reactions in the Sun it takes a single photon approx. 10,000-170,000 years to go from the Suns core to it's surface (only 695,000 km or 2.31 light seconds).

Now there'sm a tidbt of info I couldn't possibly live without! ;P
you really expect us to believe that comming from a guy with a 127 iq lol
If I actually had an IQ of 127 I'd have to agree with you AYW. To bad my IQ is higher by more than 15%. lol
This is from the "Computers" thread
--Now we have to have a passport for Canada and Mexico? What next? Do I need one to go to a concert in Chicago? They are tracking us...constantly.
I heard a statistic today. For the Fannie Mae blach blach bailout, it will cost each and every person in the US..newborn, male ,female $2300 to bail out these aholes.
Thats not tax payers, thats every man, woman and child..job or no job.--
So, if it's such a bad thing we need a passport to go to a FOREIGN nation we should let anyone from Iran into the US right? Since "they" are tracking you I'd figure you'd be afraid to use the computer, "they" might come and get you since "they" know where you are now.
You use the US dollar and pay income tax, both of those are illegal, why are you so surprised we'd have to bail out private companies for bad business practices?
Take a lesson on the Constitution and Economics 101.
BTW who are "they"? lmao
They just keep coming! Newbies (or not) with silly little "rules" that we must follow.

Ok, done laughing now.

Haha, she can't delete your comments (she can block you) so leave her something good, so she can look at it every tme she looks at her comments! ;P
You mean theres more Rules?
TW?
Oh good gracious! More rules. Like we don't have a ton to follow already in the real world? Geez...
lmfao X
very very true LOL
Hmm.. I need a good profile rule, An elf.. wow I am only a hobgoblin/ghost.
I'm thinking about rating everyone who says "I rate what I get" a 1. Regardless of what they give me.
Of course I only rate about 5 profiles a day so it may take me a while lol.
There is something seriously wrong when there are profiles like this:
--"I am 89% Native american Cherokee and Chouctau. I have 11% Irish in me. People think me wierd, I think they are! to me the sciety is going to hell and needs to pull together or the owrld will become nothing but turmoil soon enough. I have very strong veliefs in many different areas. If you mess with me you mess with my friends. and visa versa. my friends are my life without them I would be nothing. I believe that death is not the answer to ll problems but the final answer to stupidity. I do not think death can be overcome or avoided one day it will come to all even those who think differnent. I do believe in God. I do not believe in the theory of evlolution. I plan to finish high school and then become a lawyer"--
There are so many things wrong with this girls profile it make my ears bleed and thats only a portion of it.
At least I'm kind enough to not mention names lol.
COMMENTS
Considering they can't even spell Choctaw, makes me wonder how stupid they really are...veliefs? Wtf is that?
Another one I see..sigh
How do they know the percentage of their heritage anyways? "Veliefs"? Really people learn how to spell for crying out loud! What do they teach kids in school now? Slang & how to mess up your grammar?
I was wondering about that too..
This is the largest known star in the Universe, VY Canis Majoris.
It is 2,600x the radius of our Sun and if it were placed where the Sun is it's surface would extend to the orbit of Saturn.
VY CMa is so large that it would take light 8 hours* to go across it's circumference.
COMMENTS
Makes one wonder..
what would happen if that thing went nova? :P
how does one measure the speed of light to begin with? I'm scientifically retarded
I think I'm giving up on the Forum for now. I've been on VR for a little over two years now and I've seen trends come and go. One week the forums are kick ass the next they're populated with people who should never be allowed to breed, let alone breathe.
However, the past few months I can't seem to find any topic able to hold its own again an onslaught of retardation.
I'll try and keep it on track or give some real answers/facts (which are, normally, accepted and replied to) but now all I see are morons talking about "space energy" and vampires being created because of diabetes or Christians are evil because your mommy was mean to you.
One of my favourites was when a certain individual he/she thing said that science fails when it comes to quantum physics and isn't a very good belief system. Are you kidding me!? Without science there would be no quantum physics and your precious magic bullsh*t would have you shoving garlic up your nose to keep out the evil vapors. As for science being a poor "religion." It's NOT a religion or any belief system. Science is facts, numbers and making educated predictions that are good based on evidence. Those that use science as a form of belief are just as bad as those who think when they blow up a mall they're going to get 72 virgins.
So before I go utterly insane as a result of VR inbreds I'm going to take a little break.
I wonder how many people I have yet to offend? :)
And only 50 posts left before reaching level 28.

They are allowed to have threads on comic book super heroes but a thread i posted on serial killers, and whether or not they are norn that way gets deleted because a certain dominar said it isn't pertaining to the "dark network."
