All Evidence tells us that the universe is mainly composed of matter, and that antimatter is in short supply. Indeed, huge particle accelerators are needed to generate even tiny amounts of antimatter on Earth. But a fundamental tenet of big bang cosmology suggests that at the beginning of time there was just as much antimatter as matter in the universe. How then did the universe lose its antimatter?
