Submission + - Does antimatter fall up? Experiment could provide the answer. (arstechnica.com) 3
Doug Otto writes: Scientists at CERN ask the question:
But one interesting question remains unanswered: does antimatter possess antigravity, experiencing a repulsive force when matter experiences attraction? And, even if antimatter experiences plain old gravity, does it behave in exactly the same way as matter does? And if it does fall up, could a dog see it?

I've always wondered this (Score:2)
I mean what I know about quantum physics tells me it doesn't, that gravity happens at a level more fundamental than quark arrangement, but I still always wondered since it always made sense for gravity to be backwards anyways. Hopefully they find out.
