Researchers have successfully trapped antimatter for 100 seconds. I'm not sure what that means for science but it makes for an awesome party trick. Thanks to Eulogy for the link.
The team has now managed to capture 112 antiatoms in this new trap for times ranging from one-fifth of a second to 1,000 seconds, or 16 minutes and 40 seconds. (To date, since the beginning of the project, Fajans and his colleagues have trapped 309 antihydrogen atoms in various traps.)
