Thankyou Newtonian, for your very thorough answer, along with the religious interpretation. However, I have a few comments, and questions.<br /><br />kyle_baron - I don't understand how you connect the existence of antimatter with the existence of other dimensions - antimatter exists within our 3-d universe observed portion: <br /><br />Plume of Antimatter Discovered <br /><br />Astrophysicists recently discovered what appears to be a 3,500-light-year-long plume of antimatter streaming out of the core of our galaxy, the Milky Way, reports The New York Times. Antimatter consists of atomic particles that are exactly like normal matter except that they have opposite electrical charges. Contact with particles of ordinary matter results in mutual annihilation and releases powerful gamma rays having a specific energy. Scientists identified the plume as antimatter by tuning the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory satellite to that energy level. As for the effect of the plume, “the astrophysicists said it did not threaten Earth, just their image of the galaxy.” - "Awake!," 10/22/97, p. 29. <br /><br />The signature of antimatter-matter annihilation (the plume is also called an annihilation plume) is a specific gamma ray spectrum emission which is what Compton observed<br /><br />It doesn't stay antimatter for very long. The plume is the Gamma Ray remanent of the paired particles annihilation. So maybe, the blackhole at the center of our galaxy acts like a giant accelerator and smashes matter together to produce antimatter, which is spewed out. And, is subsequently annihiliated when it meets normal matter (probably gas) as it exits the core of the galaxy? Would this be an accurate interpretation of that article? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font size="4"><strong></strong></font></p> </div>
