Obviously, antimatter could not exist within reach of ordinary matter as it exists on earth. But it may even be common in other parts of the universe. Some of the distant galaxies may be made of such reversed matter. The light from a star of antimatter, says Professor Frisch, would be just like the light from normal stars...

...there are no galaxies made of antimatter, the cosmologists should try to explain why they do not exist. An explanation is relatively easy for those cosmologists who believe the universe was formed in a vast, single explosion. "The universe," explains Professor Frisch,"must have been very dense at first, and annihilation would have weeded out all but one kind of matter." But for those who hold that matter is being created continuously in space between the galaxies, the antiproton is more of a problem. Their theory will have to explain, says Professor Frisch, why only one kind of matter...
