Antimatter factory celebrates first truckload of worlds most expensive material
CERN’s BASE experiment achieves first antimatter transport by truck, enabling new research beyond lab conditions.
The BASE experiment at CERN, on the France-Switzerland border, is celebrating the first successful transport of antimatter by truck. The newfound ability to transport antimatter offsite will empower scientists to study it in greater detail without interference from the giant magnets that power CERN's antimatter factory, possibly unlocking hidden truths about the nature of the universe.
