The main disadvantage about antimatter is that it must be held away from its "ordinary" particle, preferably in a vacuum. This is because when they come into contact they completely eliminate each other. It's like if you add 1 with -1 it makes zero. However, if held properly, it can be excellent for research as we currently know very little about it. For example we don't know why there is so much more ordinary matter than antimatter.

Moreover, a number of large areas of the universe, that doesn't have any contact with each other, may be made of antimatter. we wouldn't have any mean to know from where we are.
In an atom of antimatter what would be the charge of an electron?

What are two questions physicists have regarding antimatter?
1. Why is there more matter than antimatter in the Universe? Or: Why is there matter at all? (If there were the same amount of matter and antimatter, and it came into contact, it would quickly get destroyed. 2. If antimatter is so abundant, how come we've never come in contact with it or have been able to observe it?

Is it theoretically possible for there to be sentient beings composed of antimatter?
Absolutely not - Antimatter is a hypothetical form of matter that is as yet unsubstantiated. Answer It's possible but not probable. And antimatter is not hypothetical
How come the universe is made of matter and not antimatter?
That is not currently known. There is a slight assymetry between matter and antimatter, but so far, it seems that this assymetry is not enough to explain why there is only matter, and hardly any antimatter, in the Universe. Without such an assymetry, there wouldn't be either matter or antimatter in the Universe - just radiation. For more information about what is known, and what isn't, check the Wikipedia article on "Baryon asymmetry".
