WORLD'S FIRST ANTIMATTER DELIVERY BY TRUCK SIGNALS A 'NEW ERA' IN PHYSICS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

CERN scientists transported antiprotons on a 10-kilometer drive around the campus in a truck. Moving antimatter particles is a major challenge, as when antimatter comes into contact with matter, it annihilates and disappears in a flash of energetic particles. The scientists have found a way to trap antiprotons inside a special ion trap. This will allow them to be transferred to other, quieter facilities where they can be studied with greater precision.
