I had idea that antimatter might repel normal matter many years ago but I thought it was already conclusively experimentally tested because such test should be easy enough. Just cool down some antiprotons with lasers and see if they fall towards earth or in the opposite direcion.

Haven't anyone done this so far?


Woohoo, you mean all I need to do is carry around a 175lb antimatter backpack and I can float free! ;)
