Yeah, we've found a band of antiprotons trapped in a fairly high-radiation section of the solar system.

Next stop, Alpha Centuari?  :P

It's always nice when hard evidence confirms theoretical predictions.  What I wonder now is what might be trapped in the magnetic field of a planet like Jupiter.

Is it possible to grab up some of those particles and make some energy for Earth out of it.  ;D

Neytiri: She will try to kill you.

I saw on the news, that antimatter is in the Earth's magnetic field, not so far away, but we need to evolve our technology to catch it

This is good news :D
then we can travel very much faster in space, as to travel to Alpha Centauri or other places, where we think it can be life, like Gliese 581

With these antimatter clouds would it be possible to fly through them and just gain a bunch of "fuel" so that the spacecraft could keep traveling?
