Subsequently, one may also ask, how long can we store antimatter?

Summary: Physicists with the international ALPHA Collaboration at CERN in Geneva have succeeded in storing a total of 309 antihydrogen atoms, some for as long as 1,000 seconds (almost 17 minutes) or even longer -- more than enough time to perform meaningful scientific experiments on confined anti-atoms.

Secondly, where is antimatter found? The discovery confirms earlier predictions that Earth's magnetic field can trap antimatter particles created by the interaction of cosmic rays with our planet's atmosphere, said study team member Alessandro Bruno, an astrophysicist at the University of Bari in Italy.

Hereof, can we contain antimatter?

Antimatter in the form of charged particles can be contained by a combination of electric and magnetic fields, in a device called a Penning trap. This device cannot, however, contain antimatter that consists of uncharged particles, for which atomic traps are used.

Can you destroy matter with antimatter?

So to answer your question, matter can be created and destroyed which is the same for both matter and anti-matter, however it is the energy contained within these particles that cannot be created or destroyed. Antimatter cannot be destroyed if it doesn't exist.
