Future of Antimatter Production
#2
Why does this seem like the plot of a Dan Brown novel. Where's the Illuminati?

Thinking about "antimatter storage vessels," CERN, and The Vatican now... that was a terrible book..

Anyway, where are we in anti matter storage capacity (I don't think it's much), and how to they know the energy output is enough for FTL. Which is what that quote leads one to believe.

They're being deceptive otherwise. Sure, a single human lifespan could be on one of these crafts and visit Arroway's father on Vega, but what they don't tell you is they still can't break down the laws of physics, and could only go 99.99999% the speed of light at most, which through dilation wouldn't age you much, but when you return, time is relative.

If a star is 45 lightyears away and you go .9999999 the speed of light the round trip only takes 14½ days for you. But everyone would be dead when you got back. Unless they're suggesting you can open up an Einstein-Rosen Bridge with said stockpiled antimatter.

But there's charts and pictures of sci-fi engine cores. And it's on Science Direct.
