Where Did the Antimatter Go?

Pigeons can pinpoint their location hundreds of kilometers from their roosts and navigate home autonomously, only using smell, the sun, and even Earth’s magnetic field.

Annihilating half a universe worth of antimatter against matter would have caused a really big explosion. A big bang, you could say

Much rather pay trillions for science than billions for war

I literally right now finished writing an essay about this. 😮😮😮

Maybe the true antimatter was the friends we made along the way
@
It's not half the universe had disappeared, it's more accurate to say 99.9999999 and what tiny matter that survived is what's the current universe is made out of.
@
My personal theory is that Antimatter migrated to a parallel universe
@
60 trillion $ hmmm... seems fair !

I never understood why we assume our observable universe is representative of the universe as a whole. We could live in a pocket which simply is part of a matter arm of the universe rather than an antimatter arm

Classic anti-Thanos: wiping out half of the universe and saying "perfectly unbalanced, as all things should be"

Sorry, I ate it, my bad

Edit: It tasted like ⬛️⬛️⬛️⬛️, with a hint of ⬜️⬜️⬜️⬜️. Definitely would recommend, since a lot of folks wanted to know, which is understandable.

Man, antimatter inflation hits hard.

plot twist - we are the missing antimatter in someone else's universe.

Refines a $60 trillion dollar gram of the good stuff, snorts a line, creates giant gamma ray burst, profit.

Turns out antimatter matters just as much as matter matters.
