One of the Universe’s open questions maybe a step closer to be answered thanks to over 30 atoms of antihydrogen that have been trapped and stored by scientists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, Cern. According to a written statement, this opens the path to new ways of making detailed measurements of antihydrogen, which will allow scientists to compare matter and antimatter, the latter being what annihilates ordinary matter in a single explosive flash of energy.
