Antimatter is actually matter that can be considered going back in time. Negative matter is matter that has negative gravity properties. In other words, Negative matter repels things. Negative matter is also theoretical, not proven. Antimatter has been (and is being) made.

∙ 13y agoWe know that anti-matter exists; we can make it, although in VERY tiny quantities. "Dark matter", on the other hand, is still only a theory, and we've never discovered any - or at least, not that we can be certain of.

∙ 13y agoIf you do some reading on both, the difference should be quite clear.
Briefly, antimatter is like normal matter, with some properties exchanged. For example, instead of positive protons there are negative anti-protons, instead of negative electrons there are positive anti-electrons, etc.
Dark matter, on the other hand, is matter of unknown composition. Not much is known about it, except that it exists, and that it doesn't interact (or hardly interacts) in the normal manner. For example, it doesn't absorb light. It is known to exist, due to its gravitational attraction.

What is the difference between the light dependent and the dark reactions of the Calvin cycle?
What is the difference between the light dependent and the dark reactions of the calvin cycle?
What is the difference between light and dark?
The difference between light and dark is a rather complicated topic. It involves, with light, their being certain wavelengths present. With darkness, there are no wavelengths present.
What is the connection between gravity and dark matter?
When the total amount of mass in a galaxy is computed, and the total amount of gravity is calculated there is a discrepancy. There appears to be more matter in the galaxy than what can be observed. Dark matter was theorized as being matter that exists but does not interact with electromagnetic radiation. Because of this, it cannot be seen. That is why it is called dark matter.
What is a dark matter microscope used for?
There's no such thing as a "dark matter microscope." The whole point of dark matter is that it doesn't interact with electromagnetic radiation... if it did, it wouldn't be dark matter.
How strong is dark matter?
Dark matter's strength is proportional to it's mass. This means that more dark matter in one spot is stronger then a little bit of dark matter in that same spot.
Can there be a possibility of anti-dark-matter?
Too little is known about dark matter to speculcate on this.
Is dark or anti-matter been found or saved with the use of the collider?
"Anti-matter" . . . yes, routinely. "Dark matter" . . . no way to know. The reason it's called "dark" is that it can't be seen or detected in any way currently available to us; its existence is a hypothesis that's presently untestable.
When some Gnostics speak of the interaction between anti-matter and matter are they actually speaking of the interaction between dark matter and matter?
No. Antimatter and dark matter are two entirely different things. Dark matter is a form of matter (for lack of a better word) that only interacts with ordinary matter via gravity. Antimatter is matter consisting of antiparticles. For every normal particle type there is an antiparticle of the same mass but opposite charge. If a particle meets its antiparticle the two annihilate each other and turn into energy.
Littlebigplanet dark matter what is it?
Dark matter and Light matter. They are tweakable, anti-gravity materials. Dark matter and light matter have the same effects but just look different. Very useful for creating floating platforms so it is best to use them in a platformer.
What is the difference between dark energy and dark matter and what are the inferred affects of each?
From my studies dark energy creates electrical phtons making a stonger pull to the source than dark matter does. In fact, I think that dark energy can power a car, but sadly it is impossible to harness dark energy. I'll have to do little more research to be sure.
What is the difference between dark and darkness?
Dark is an adjective darkness is a noun
Where will the God Particle be found?
The god particle or the higgs bosom will be fund within Gravity's Magnetism fields...magetism is part of gravity in a smaller scale- yet as anti-matter also known as dark energy is part responsible for the appearance of expansion of the universes' matter -- so is dark energy anti-matter part of magnetism and gravity. the god particle field is within magnetism's gravity there you'll find also dark energy or anti-matter... as well as the binding power of the higgs bosom particle.

Do you have any thing like anti gravitational force in the universe?
There is a force called as gravitational force in the universe. The most beloved scientist, Newton has derived the law of gravity. But it has never been explained that as to why there is force of attraction and not the force of repulsion. When there is the force of attraction, there has to be the corresponding force of repulsion in the nature. You can not have the isolated north pole, with out the presence of south pole. So you have the force of attraction between matter to matter. You have force of attraction between anti-matter to anti-matter. So there has to be force of repulsion between matter to anti-matter. So the matter will repel the anti-matter in the space. So you have lost the universe (universes) in the space. The presence of matter is the proof that the anti-matter exists in the space in exactly equal amount. This is subjected to the inter conversion of matter into energy as per the law of Einstein, that is E = m c 2. The law of gravity is stated as F = G m 1* m 2 / r 2. If one of the mass is anti-matter, then the formula is : minus F = G (minus m 1)* m 2. Here the value of F also becomes negative. So that becomes the force anti to the force of gravity. That is force of repulsion. Hence proved.
What is dark matter dark energy exotic matter and the lesser known white matter Not the myelinated nerve cell tissue?
Dark Matter is that which we may call Space. That which takes up about 90% of the universe. It does not exist only in what the term represents i.e There is dark matter or space between the Earth and Mars. It is only dark because it neither absorbs nor reflects light. Take the word Love, it is but a word but it is what it represents that counts. That the universe is expanding is true but it is not Dark Matter or Space which causes the expansion, only the distance between objects.
