Scientists Witness Antimatter Particles Falling due to Gravity
On 27th September, 2023, CERN, Europe's renowned physics laboratory, made a groundbreaking announcement that scientists have observed antimatter particles, the enigmatic counterparts of visible matter, falling downward under the influence of gravity for the very first time.
- Researchers at CERN have confirmed the existence of antimatter particles responding to gravity by falling downwards.
- This finding is a crucial confirmation of our understanding of the universe and dispels the notion that gravity repels antimatter.
- According to the widely accepted theory, the Big Bang approximately 13.8 billion years ago generated an equal quantity of matter (comprising everything visible) and antimatter ....
