NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has detected beams of anti-matter launched by thunderstorms.
Acting like enormous particle accelerators, the storms can emit "Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes" (TGFs) and high-energy electrons and positrons.

Scientists now think that most TGFs produce particle beams and antimatter. "These signals are the first direct evidence that thunderstorms make antimatter particle beams," said Michael Briggs, at a news briefing at the American Astronomical Society meeting in Seattle on Jan 10, 2011.
