Antigravity gets first test at Cern's Alpha experiment - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Yahnich;40515365]really? i thought spin was the same but their magnetic moments were opposite[/QUOTE] Wiki says so so I dunno.

[QUOTE=Madtoker;40509544]Whaaat the hell anti-gravity matter/particles... edit: didnt think this was possible actually.[/QUOTE] Anything is possible when you put your mind to it, there's noting to it. Science is our brain child, the possibilities are wild.

[QUOTE=ultra_bright;40515983]Anything is possible when you put your mind to it, there's noting to it. Science is our brain child, the possibilities are wild.[/QUOTE] nah there's quite a lot of impossible things

[QUOTE=ultra_bright;40515983]Anything is possible when you put your mind to it, there's noting to it. Science is our brain child, the possibilities are wild.[/QUOTE] Speed of light. Yes we're talking about antimatter, but that doesn't mean its from another universe, it's quite real and will quite probably follow the laws of physics.

Hence why probably. I mean, it's hard to say for sure. We're all just so used to reality being what is is and everything is drilled into our skulls to such an extent it's hard to even imagine something being different. Still, i don't think antimatter has quite the properties they want to test it to have. But there might be something else out there that does float up. I mean, gravity isn't really just a bunch of magnets like some people make it sound.

[QUOTE=Yahnich;40515271][b]antiprotons are called negatrons[/b] how fucking cool is that [/QUOTE] Instantly made me think of this. One of the teachers at my high school had this printed out as a wall-sized poster and hung it in his classroom. [t]http://www.geeknative.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/optimist_prime.jpg[/t]

[QUOTE=Chaoss86;40517744]The future cometh [B]edited:[/B] also who wants to take bets on how long it will be before someone 'invents' a hoverboard with this tech[/QUOTE] I bet on "a long ass time". We probably will have fusion before that. [editline]3rd May 2013[/editline] And that is saying something.

[QUOTE=Chaoss86;40517744]The future cometh [B]edited:[/B] also who wants to take bets on how long it will be before someone 'invents' a hoverboard with this tech[/QUOTE] just as soon as antimatter stops annihilating all regular matter it comes into contact with and producing earth-shattering (not exaggerating) explosions in any real quantity (never)

I know antimatter annihilates all matter it comes into contact with, but do they have any attraction?

Wait what? I thought that the common belief was that antimatter is affected by gravity just the same way as matter is, I mean, after all it's the same thing only with its electrical charge inverted. Hell, this would really complicate the definition of gravity, considering how it's tied to mass and mass is predicted to be the same for particles and their antiparticle pairs (if they have one)

What I really want to see is artificial gravity so we can use it in space, there has to be a way somehow.

[QUOTE=Ogris;40516431]But there might be something else out there that does float up. I mean, gravity isn't really just a bunch of magnets like some people make it sound.[/QUOTE] You're right. The magnetic force is repulsive sometimes. ;) [editline]4th May 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=ZestyLemons;40511172]It seriously concerns me that I never thought that there was an opposite of gravity that pushes away[/QUOTE] I don't see why that concerns you since as far as we're aware, gravity is always attractive.

[QUOTE=turkeyfag;40510122]Sure. [IMG]http://www.geek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/6471622133_32ccdc2bbd_b-590x392.jpg[/IMG] edit; Okay guises :([/QUOTE] Forum hosted by Garry, who made the [B]source[/B] mod, garrymods, doesn't take a gravity gun joke. :suicide:
