Conference. 123 This is Messier 87—one of many galaxies and nebulae radiating radio energy throughout time and space. What primeval force motivates this celestial radioactivity ? Until an RCA Multiplier Phototube successfully recorded the antiproton at 75 to 77 percent of the speed of light, this phenomenon was indeed wrapped in a physical enigma. Now, the discovery of the antiproton lends support to the theory of antimatter. Thus, today, many cosmologists s h a r e a speculation that radio emission from the stars is caused by energy released in i.pace when antimatter and m a t t e r collide.
