It’s the rarest, most expensive, and potentially the most dangerous material on earth. Scientists don’t know why this material is so rare. Anti-atoms took 72 years after we discovered antimatter to make. Why? Thanks to CERN, Elise Wursten, Loïc Bommersbach

Some sports attract tall athletes and some are dominated by athletes with a shorter stature. The study of allometry investigates how strength scales with height. According to science, what are the reasons that certain sports attract tall or short athletes, besides the obvious (basketball nets are easier to reach if you’re taller)? Help us translate
