Human existence doesn't really make sense. When the universe was created, matter and a substance called antimatter should have obliterated each other. But that didn't happen. If scientists can unravel the mysteries of antimatter, it could help scientists understand why there is life on this planet and possibly on planets elsewhere. But trying to study antimatter is a fiendishly difficult task. Part of the "Science's Greatest Mysteries" series.
