00:00What is the most expensive thing on Earth?
00:03It's not gold.
00:04It's not diamonds.
00:06It's not a superyacht.
00:08It's antimatter.
00:10Antimatter is the exact opposite of normal matter.
00:14When antimatter touches matter, they destroy each other instantly, releasing pure energy.
00:20It costs $62.5 trillion per gram.
00:26$62.5 trillion for one gram.
00:30Why?
00:31Because we can't find it.
00:33We have to make it.
00:35Scientists created atom by atom at CERN, inside the Large Hadron Collider, by smashing particles
00:42together at nearly the speed of light.
00:44In all of human history, we have made less than a billionth of a gram, and we can barely
00:50store it, because if it touches anything, it vanishes.
00:54But one gram holds enough energy to rival a nuclear bomb.
01:00One gram could fly a rocket to Mars.
01:03Per gram, antimatter is the most expensive and most dangerous substance we have ever made.
