We don’t see that, so it seems our universe is just made of matter.

Does this mean that an anti-matter solar system could exist in our galaxy separated by the near emptiness between stars and any planets in orbit and the rest of the Milky Way? Could we detect such a system by its solar wind? That is, when the solar wind of the anti-matter star exited the boundary of the system, would there be total annihilation between the anti-solar wind and normal(!) solar wind? Could this explain a continuous source of gamma rays?

I read earlier the BBC report on this paper and (as a non-scientist) thought it was well written and well explained and wondered what you would make of it-would yours be more informative. Indeed it was, and I’m slightly disappointed in the BBC for not saying more. It just goes to show how much is left unsaid in popular presses, even amongst the best.
