A trapped positron, cooled almost to absolute zero and held away from every wall, can now be nudged one quantum at a time to test antimatter.
The Vatican better have Robert Langdon on speed dial.

Mundane me just wants to know if this means I’ll eventually get antigravity boots, but to science nerd me it’s amazing stuff. Capturing a single positron? Cooling it to less than 1°C above absolute zero? Making a positron flip spin states at will? Things like remind me that the future is happening after all.
