Why Particles Matter (rather than Anti-Matter)
Researchers at the Super-Kamiokande neutrino detector in Japan have
observed CP violation in neutrinos for the first time, which may explain why we live in a universe of matter rather than one of antimatter, or of the radiation left over from matter/antimatter reactions had the Big Bang produced equal amounts. CP violation has been observed in quarks, but it wasn't enough to explain the matter/antimatter imbalance in the universe. Neutrino CP violation may be enough.
One more big question approaches an answer!

How much antimatter is left over?

I've sat all day trying to think of a funny response to this and I got nothing. XD
