Earth Is Getting Hit by Too Much Anti-Matter, And Nobody Knows Why
Earth’s been getting hit by the fast moving high energy cosmic rays bursting off from outer space. These cosmic rays comprise positrons in a small proportion. But there’s something more, in a greater amount, coming our way. In 2008 PAMELA, a probe in Earth’s orbit, detected more high energy positrons approaching nearby expanse of our galaxy, but nobody was completely sure how they’re formed. The pulsar at the heart of Crab Nebula (NASA). Astronomers analyzed the data gathered from the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory and suggested that these antimatter particles are coming from powerful celestial objects known as pulsars . A pulsar is a highly magnetized neutron star channeling a beam of electromagnetic radiations. It works like a huge particle accelerator; shattering particles together and creating matter from energy, when the beam collides with contiguous gasses and dust. Theoretically, particles like electrons and positrons happen to form, which are abruptly...
