The Physics of Launching Fireworks From a Drone
https://www.wired.com/story/the-physics-...m-a-drone/
EXCERPT: Can you launch fireworks from your drone? OK, before I answer this question I have my own question: Why? Guys, why would you want to put fireworks on your drone? I mean, I get it. Fireworks are cool and drones are cool. Therefore fireworks on drones are cool to the power of two, I guess. But really, it's probably not a good idea to manifest your American pride with this particular version of pyrotechnics. As a PSA, let's say that my official stance is that drones should just be drones and fireworks should just be fireworks. The physics of pulling off something like this is an entirely different thing, though. For the sake of science, I'm going to point out two considerations you would need to have for a firework-drone combo....

Could we get antigravity from antimatter?
http://www.sciencefocus.com/article/phys...antimatter
EXCERPT: . . . But most theorists doubt that antimatter also produces antigravity. That’s because the so-called charge-parity-time (CPT) theorem of quantum theory suggests antimatter’s ‘anti-ness’ does not extend to its mass and gravitational effect...
