35 milligrams are all that would be needed to put something the mass of the Space Shuttle into orbit.

Here's an interesting idea for a "cheap" way to get antimatter: scoop it out of space.

Sounds like there may be military applications, too. Scoop up antimatter from space, magnetically bottle it into bombs, and then drop them on enemy countries.

As they say, you're not doing real physics unless your work may lead to the destruction of all life on Earth.
