[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] Well, I kinda get what he's saying... OK, we have to have a pre-existing source of stored energy to get any use out of it, right? Well, matter IS a pre-existing source of stored energy. You just need anti-matter to utilize it. So say you take a chunk of matter with a mass of two kilos, and convert half of it to anti-matter. You've expended the energy it takes to convert one kilo, but you can get TWO kilo-equivalents of energy out of it. So if you could get the efficiency of the conversion process so that it cost less than 200% of the energy equivalency of a given mass to convert that mass to anti-matter, you COULD get a gain out of it. Now, the question is, how does one go about switching the polarity of matter, and is it physically possible to get the process that efficient? [/QB][/QUOTE]
