Current Goal


To go from cache to cache, illustrating some strange aspects of quantum mechanics, such as the matter-antimatter asymmetry and the uncertainty principle.

About This Item

Bug & Antibug pair production

Enter the strange world of quantum mechanics. Bug and Antibug look similar, but Bug is made of normal matter, as Antibug is built with antimatter. They may never stay at the same place, otherwise they would annihilate each other, in an explosion equivalent to about 200 kilotons of TNT. So, for safety, Bug should travel West, and Antibug should go to the East.

Rules for quantum bugs are not the same as the one we apply to the normal bugs :
  • If you find one :
    • just retrieve it, if this option is available
    • or else, grab it
  • When dropping one in a cache :
    • If the bug (or antibug) is still in your inventory, drop it using the "dropped off" option on geocaching.com
    • If the bug (or antibug) is no more in your inventory, no problem, just drop it in the cache, with no action on geocaching.com
Note : With this "Bug and Antibug" travel bug, I wanted to experiment with the use of the Copy Tag that Groundspeak delivers when you buy a Travel Bug Tag. Just to see what happens when you launch both the Travel Bug and the Copy Tag at the same time. Have fun.
