Oh, we have anti-matter...just very, very little of it. If you could find a way to make a large quantity of it, you'd be richer than God.

Yah I heard that we have anti-matter, next thing is to harness several times the energy of the sun to gain warp speeds.

While watching the entire complex be destroyed in massive fireball, "Wow, that's funny."

The surface of the sun is 5700 K... it's not really that hot.

The center of the sun is a hundred million or so degrees.

Without actually going to wikipedia and thus avoiding making an ass of myself ... I had thought the corona was the hottest part of the sun
