According to the article Alien Antimatter Crashes into Earth : More than 60 years ago, future Nobel laureate Sheldon Glashow predicted that if an collided with an antineutrino the antimatter answer to the nearly massless neutrino | electron, it could produce a cascade of other particles. The "Glashow resonance - phenomenon is hard to detect, in large part because the antineutrino needs about 1,000 times more energy than what's produced in the most powerful colliders on Earth. Let's compare this event to an ordinary baseball with a mass of 146 g. Please use three significant figures in your calculations.
