It isn't going to magically stop nukes from hitting us so I'm debating on what's the real purpose of this and why does it even matter in the long run.
...Do you know how much energy it takes to synthesize one gram of antimatter? More energy than that gram can produce when reacted with its normal matter counterpart ._. Also very impractical like Da Cat said. It does not occur natural on our earth, if it did we wouldn't exist.
The earth's circumference is 21,600nmi. A single ship could control an area spanning 400nmi. 54 ships with railguns could effectively hit any target on the equator barring land. These weapons have absolutely massive range and their ammunition is relatively inexpensive.
Yeah but think of the energy yield, and I think it will be clean as well. They already found a way to contain anti-matter through electro magnetic field.

Did you not read his post
There is net loss of energy to synthesis the stuff
Partical collision of Hydrogen atoms sometime produce anti-matters. Plus there is believe to be a huge reserve of anti-matters near center of our galaxy.

The biggest limiting factor in the large-scale production of antimatter is the availability of antiprotons. Recent data released by CERN states that, when fully operational, their facilities are capable of producing ten million antiprotons per minute.[33] Assuming a 100% conversion of antiprotons to antihydrogen, it would take 100 billion years to produce 1 gram or 1 mole of antihydrogen (approximately 6.02×10^23 atoms of antihydrogen).
It's a black hole.
Of course there is.
Funny enough blackhole is not actually anti-matter reserves (at least from what we can tell). They are talking about actual accessible reserves (although I use the worl "accessible" in a very loose sense, since anti-matter will complete annhilate itself an equal mass of matter upon contact), but since we already have means to contain it, there is hope we can actually mine this stuff in a couple hundred years maybe less.

No offense by your begining to sound like ron paul
And who says we wont invent a way to harness fusion in that time span
Completely ignoring the fact that it would take much, much, much too long to get there and back. Thousands if not millions of years for what? Anti-matter? By then we sure as hell better have a better and more efficient energy source.
Kinda wish I knew more physics so I could yell at you more.
