Eight years ago, the International Space Station detected weird antimatter particles that challenge our entire understanding of physics. Now, researchers have proposed that mysterious cosmic "fireballs" could help explain the detection.

    Detected by equipment on the International Space Station. There is no antimatter on the station itself.

      Can you imagine the anti matter colliding with the glass of the ISS? Must’ve been a nightmare

          Agreed! He gives good explanations for the layperson, and his good mood is so infectious. He always brightens my day 😊

            For the curious, they’re talking about Anton Petrov on YouTube. One of the best science communicators out there imo.

            He has a focus on Astronomy but covers a wide variety of new findings in science.

        Bro, I’ve been trying to get someone to recognize a Dr Nick reference IRL for probably a decade now. Do you feel my pain?
