Quote:Nansei has several metric tons of antimatter in storage for research purposes
Cost
Scientists claim that antimatter is the costliest material to make.[37] In 2006, Gerald Smith estimated $250 million could produce 10 milligrams of positrons[38] (equivalent to $25 billion per gram); in 1999 NASA gave a figure of $62.5 trillion per gram of antihydrogen.
So the station's load is worth like, 1,000,000 x 62.5 trillion dollars? Da fudge is that in credits?
The reaction of 1 kg of antimatter with 1 kg of matter would produce 1.8Ã1017 J (180 petajoules) of energy (by the mass-energy equivalence formula, E = mc2), or the rough equivalent of 43 megatons of TNT ' slightly less than the yield of the Tsar Bomb, the largest thermonuclear weapon ever detonated.
