00:00I love you.
00:31Antimatter is one of the biggest mysteries that we have in science.
00:35It's very rare to start with, so we haven't been able to study it very much.
00:39But it holds the keys to our understanding of what literally why the universe is like it is.
00:44Because the whole issue for us is that when the universe started out life, half of it was made of
00:51antimatter.
00:51And yet there's hardly any of that stuff around now.
00:54And there's something really peculiar about the properties and the behavior of antimatter that just allowed us to exist.
01:22We've got to the point now where we know that any differences between matter and antimatter are rather subtle.
01:27And so we have to do very precise experiments on it in order to be able to spot those differences.
01:31To do this, it's useful to be able to take small amounts of antimatter from places which are produced, like
01:38CERN,
01:38to other laboratories around Europe where precise tests of it can be done.
01:42And really this transport is a proof of principle, proof of possibility that you can perform such transports in order
01:51in the future to do them more routinely
01:53and to be able to do these precise studies of its properties.
02:02I am sure that have applications elsewhere.
02:06I just can't tell you what it is at the moment because we haven't thought about it yet, but we
02:10will.
