When will we mass produce antimatter?
Antimatter is literally the most realistic option right now if you want relativistic spaceships. Prove me wrong

I am skeptical we've produced it at all.

Mass production is off the table, until someone can prove that these "nanograms of antimatter" are ACTUALLY ANTIMATTER.

Antimatter is produced everyday at the CERN. Hell even your body produces antimatter. Just eat bananas and the potassium-40 will produce some

Anti matter is a frame correction. It's probably not good to interact with it, too often.

We've measured atomic transitions of antihydrogen, it's the same as normal hydrogen but the antihydrogen quickly annihilates and produces gamma rays.

You can tell the constituent particles are antimatter because they have the same mass as the matter counterparts, and they bend backwards in electric and magnetic fields. Also, they annihilate within microseconds of contact with matter.

It's antimatter, anon.

Antimatter will be the currency of the far future, serving as propellant, fuel and explosive. While everything else can be gathered from space, antimatter requires expensive factories and accelerators.
