Fyi, the transport and storage of antimatter is very interesting to those developing nuclear weapons. An antimatter reaction could theoretically be used to pump a nuclear warhead, enabling perhaps smaller nukes than are currently feasible. That is IF one could store and transport usable amounts of antimatter for extended periods.

- gus_massa 1y agoDo you have a link that explais that? Asking for a friend.
