The Science Asylum | What Makes Antimatter So Special?! (animations by SEJL) @ScienceAsylum | Uploaded 9 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
It's pretty well known that matter annihilates when it comes into contact with antimatter. Unfortunately, not enough people know why this happens, what its consequences are, and what it means in the grand scheme of the universe. That’s what this video is all about!

Huge thanks to Super Enzyme Justice League for helping animate this video!
