will kill us all in a matter of seconds.. yes particles from neutrons stars and high speed colliders can "convert" normal matter to strange matter if they come into contact. They are made of strange quarks...
@ogb saidrun!!!

@ogb saidNow you got me super-curious:

@ogb saidThe only way I see that happening is if one of your converted atoms causes other nearby atoms to convert in a domino-like effect. And how do you know that you wouldn't simply be converted into a new 'anti-person' or 'strange-matter-person' without even knowing it?
@bunnyknight
you would be dead instantly once contact with one particle happens
@bunnyknight saidinteresting idea..but the"normal" matter is destroyed when the strange matter touches it. I already know some strange people.though.

@bunnyknight saidThe Strangelets take time to reach us. I don't know if we are protected or not. But if tomorrow Andromeda isn't there , then we know the Strangelet particles are heading our way...I suppose strangelets are a lot like Anti-matter..
@ogb
So we might merely be seeing a mouse dressed as a tiger.
@ogb saidA particle that converts an atom to a different form is much different from an anti-matter particle that produces pure energy when touching matter. I assume these strangelets and strange-matter is something quite different.

Some believe in the "Many Worlds" theory..which I hope is right....
