Description

This is the only known way to store antimatter, created by accelerating particles almost to lightspeed and then making them collide! The four moxie electromagnets prevent the antimatter inside the vacuum sphere to touch the borders of their cage, which would lead to an immediate anihilation of the antimatter, causing an energy discharge with the power of a dozen nuclear warheads! Beside the ammount in this storage my little story is 100% science and not fiction... I was inspired after reading "Angels & Demons" by Dan Brown (Bryce & PP10) Thanks for your voting and comments...

Really? I had a devil of a time in 9th grade with my magnetohydrodynamics models for plasma containment systems for fusion reactors - how'd you get a perfect, evenly distributed field from four magnets in that array?

;) @ddruckenmiller: Now you got the soft spot of my scene, though I've never been good at physic I must admit, that it's impossible to create such a field with only four, but I thought that six (the ones over and under the sphere must be stronger) magnets would've overloaded the scene...and after the render I was just too lazy to add two more and render it again but I'll promise to alter it someday...

I recently heard of a story that the sun can generate small amounts of antimatter itself, like about 500 grams worth. Enough to run the United States for 2 days.
