@NobelPrize In 1928, Dirac wrote an equation to describe the behaviour of an electron moving at a relativistic speed. It could have two solutions: one for an electron with positive energy, and one for an electron with negative energy.
@NobelPrize This equation, in some way, predicted for the first time the existence of an anti-world identical to ours, but made out of antimatter.
