There is a cool little story that I was just reading and would like to share, concerning anti-matter, and that it does matter (pun intended).
Antimatter, which annihilates matter upon contact, seems to be rare in the universe. Still, for decades, scientists had clues that a vast cloud of antimatter lurked in space, but they did not know where it came from.
The mysterious source of this antimatter has now been discovered, stars getting ripped apart by neutron stars and black holes. While antimatter propulsion systems are so far the stuff of science fiction, antimatter is very real.
So I hope you liked this little aside story, in particular if you have followed science fiction, from Star Trek, to Star Wars, and knew that there was "some" science" behind what they used to move around the universe.
Whether you are pro-matter or anti-matter, this is one area, and one issue, were togetherness would be a very "bad" thing!! :)
