And yet that's how you started this thread. Any chance you'll be self aware enough to take your own feedback?

So you legitimately think the knowledge you gained from a public school science class is enough to determine that experts in the field don't know what they're doing?

That's a real question, because that line of reasoning is used by climate change deniers, antivaxers, and flat earthers.

Sometimes science has prevailing theories. They call them theories, because they aren't known woth certainty. But they still teach them in school, as its our best guess.

by shooting matter in one direction and antimatter in another. Like they know.

Not exactly, no.

#The matter- antimatter asymmetry problem

###The Big Bang should have created equal amounts of matter and antimatter. So why is there far more matter than antimatter in the universe?

The Big Bang should have created equal amounts of matter and antimatter in the early universe. But today, everything we see from the smallest life forms on Earth to the largest stellar objects is made almost entirely of matter. Comparatively, there is not much antimatter to be found. Something must have happened to tip the balance. One of the greatest challenges in physics is to figure out what happened to the antimatter, or why we see an asymmetry between matter and antimatter.

Antimatter particles share the same mass as their matter counterparts, but qualities such as electric charge are opposite. The positively charged positron, for example, is the antiparticle to the negatively charged electron. Matter and antimatter particles are always produced as a pair and, if they come in contact, annihilate one another, leaving behind pure energy. During the first fractions of a second of the Big Bang, the hot and dense universe was buzzing with particle-antiparticle pairs popping in and out of existence. If matter and antimatter are created and destroyed together, it seems the universe should contain nothing but leftover energy.

Nevertheless, a tiny portion of matter - about one particle per billion - managed to survive. This is what we see today. In the past few decades, particle-physics experiments have shown that the laws of nature do not apply equally to matter and antimatter. Physicists are keen to discover the reasons why. Researchers have observed spontaneous transformations between particles and their antiparticles, occurring millions of times per second before they decay. Some unknown entity intervening in this process in the early universe could have caused these "oscillating" particles to decay as matter more often than they decayed as antimatter.

Tldr just because you didn't properly listen or the teacher was shit doesn't mean physicists are as ignorant about the subject as you think. No offense.
