Benjamin Carr, Ph.D. 👨🏻💻🧬#Antimatter traveled by truck for the first time
The 92 #antiproton particles, created at European particle physics laboratory #CERN in Geneva, traveled about eight kilometers to another site within the lab before the trap was delivered, contents intact.
This followed a test with #protons in 2024, part of effort called BASE-STEP. Eventually, #scientists hope to use #BASESTEP’s technology to bring antiprotons from CERN to facilities around #Europe.
