Angels & Demons

The world’s largest scientific research facility – Switzerland’s Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire (CERN) – recently succeeded in producing the first particles of anitimatter. Antimatter is identical to physical matter except that it is composed of particles whose electric charges are opposite to those found in normal matter.

Antimatter is the most powerful enerygy source known to man. It releases energy with 100 percent efficiency (nuclear fission is 1.5 percent effecient). Antimatter creates no pollution or radiation, and a droplet could power New York City for a full day.

There is, however, one catch…

Antimatter is highly unstable. It ignites when it comes in contact with absolutely anything…even air. A single gram of antimatter contains the energy of a 20-kiloton nuclear bomb – the size of the bomb dropped on Hiroshima.

Until recently antimatter has been created only in very small amounts (a few atoms at a time). But CERN has now broken the ground on its new Antiproton Decelerator – an advanced antimatter production facility that promises to create antimatter in much larger quantities.

One question looms: Will this highly volatile substance save the world, or will it be used to create the most deadly weapon ever made?

L'Estasi di Santa Teresa

Just had time to finish reading this book. This one is definitely his best book so far. Extremely exciting, fast paced, and incredibly amazing! Such a breathless adventure. :) Now there’s only one book left, The Da Vinci Code… Should I read it first or watch the movie first?
